Article: Marathon of Simple Circuits.

This month, we're going to sponsor a marathon of simple circuits that hopefully will be the catalyst needed to turn a stalled project into a completed device or to spark an interest in starting a new project. We'll start out by looking at three basic audio circuits and see where that leads us.

Broadband Audio Amplifier

Our first audio circuit (see Fig. 1) is a two-transistor broadband audio amplifier. The amplifier circuit has a voltage gain of about 60 in the boost position and 15 in the non-boost position. In both gain positions, the amplifier's frequency response is almost flat from 200 Hz to over 100 kHz. Transistor Q1 is connected as a ...
