Amplifiers Flashcards
The control of an output signal by an input signal resulting in the output signal having some (or all) of the characteristics of the input is known as:
amplification
The control of an output signal by an input signal resulting in the output signal having some (or all) of the characteristics of the input is known as:
amplification
What is the relationship of the input and output signals in an amplifiers.
The input signal remains unchanged and the output signal is controlled by the input signal.
What is the relationship of the input and output signals in an amplifiers.
The input signal remains unchanged and the output signal is controlled by the input signal.
