THEORY:
It is usually required to use a number of tuned amplifier stages in cascade in order to
obtain large overall gain. These cascade tuned amplifiers may be put into the following
three categories:
1. Single tuned amplifiers.
2. Double tuned amplifiers.
3. Stagger-tuned amplifiers.
Single tuned amplifiers use one parallel tuned circuit as the load impedance in each stage and
all these tuned circuits in different stages are tuned to the same frequency. Double tuned
amplifier uses two inductively coupled tuned circuits per stage, both the tuned circuits being
tuned to the same frequency. Staggered tuned amplifier uses a number of single tuned stages
in cascade, the successive tuned circuits being tuned to slightly different frequencies.
Single tuned amplifiers may again be put into following two categories:
a) Capacitance coupled single tuned amplifiers and

b) Transformer coupled or inductively coupled single tuned amplifiers
RESONANT FREQUENCY:
Depending upon the frequency of the source voltage Vs, the circuits may behave either as
inductive or capacitive. However, at a particular frequency when the inductive reactance Xl
equals the capacitive reactance Xc, then the circuit behaves as a purely resistive circuit. This
phenomenon is called resonance: and the corresponding frequency is called resonant frequency.
The resonant frequency (fr) can be found by equating the two reactance values.
PROCEDURE:
1. Connect ions should be made as per the circuit diagram.
2. Connect the AC signal source from function generator (above AF range) to input of the
trainer kit.
3. Keep the input voltage constant , vary the frequency in regular steps and down the
corresponding output voltage
4. Calculate the resonant frequency.
5. Plot the graph: gain (db) Vs frequency
6. Find the input and output impedance
7. Calculate the bandwidth and Q factor
PRECAUTIONS:
1. Check connections before switching ON power supply
2. Don’t apply over voltage
3. When you are not using the equipment switch them OFF.
4. Handle all equipment carefully
