• Vertical scale- linear scale with equal divisions• The distance from log10 1=0 to log10 2 is 30% of the span.• Important to note the resulting numerical value and the spacing, since
plots will typically only have the tic marks.• Plotting a function on a log scale can change the general appearance
of the waveform as compared to a plot on a linear scale.• Straight line plot on a linear scale can develop a curve on a log scale.• Nonlinear plot on a linear scale can take on the appearance of a
straight line on a log plot.

Low-frequency response for the RC circuit
• A low frequency, the reactance of the capacitive becomes very large, so a significant portion of a signal dropped across them.
• Then as the frequency approaches zero or at dc, the capacitive reactance approach infinity or become an open circuit.
• As the frequency increases, the capacitive reactance decreases andmore of the input voltage appears across the output terminals.

Low Frequency Response – BJT Amplifier
At low frequencies Coupling capacitors (Cs, CC) and Bypass capacitors (CE) will have capacitive reactance (XC) that affect the circuit impedances.

Bode Plot of Low Frequency Response – BJT Amplifier
The Bode plot indicates that each capacitor may have a different cutoff frequency.
It is the device that has the highest of the low cutoff frequency (fL) that dominates the overall frequency response of the amplifier (fLE).
![Page 24: 7. BJT_JFET Frequency Response](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102722/5525da84550346446f8b4a56/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Roll-off of Gain in the Bode Plot
The Bode plot not only indicates the cutoff frequencies of the various capacitors it also indicates the amount of attenuation (loss in gain) at these frequencies.
The amount of attenuation is sometimes referred to as roll-off.
The roll-off is described as dB loss-per-octave or dB loss-per-decade.
Roll-off

-dB/Decade
-dB/Decade refers to the attenuation for every 10-fold change in frequency. For Low Frequency Response attenuations it refers to the loss in gain from the lower cutoff frequency to a frequency 1/10th the lower cutoff frequency.
![Page 26: 7. BJT_JFET Frequency Response](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102722/5525da84550346446f8b4a56/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
-dB/Octave
-dB/Octave refers to the attenuation for every 2-fold change in frequency.For Low Frequency Response attenuations it refers to the loss in gain from the lower cutoff frequency to a frequency 1/2 the lower cutoff frequency.
![Page 27: 7. BJT_JFET Frequency Response](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102722/5525da84550346446f8b4a56/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Miller Effect Capacitance
Any P-N junction can develop capacitance. This was mentioned in the chapter on diodes.
In a BJT amplifier this capacitance becomes noticeable between: the Base-Collector junction at high frequencies in CE BJT amplifier configurations and the Gate-Drain junction at high frequencies in CS FET amplifier configurations.
It is called the Miller Capacitance. It effects the input and output circuits.
![Page 28: 7. BJT_JFET Frequency Response](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102722/5525da84550346446f8b4a56/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Miller Input Capacitance (CMi)
It can be calculated: [Formula 9.42]
Note that the amount of Miller Capacitance is dependent on interelectrode capacitance from input to output (Cf) and the gain
(Av).

• fL – produce by coupling & bypass capacitor at low frequency.
• fH – produce by interelectrode capacitance at high frequency
• Dominant frequencies are referred to as the lower critical frequency fL and the upper critical frequency fH
• fH and fL are sometimes called the half-power frequencies.

• When amplifier stages are cascaded to form a multistage amplifier, the dominant frequency response is determined by the responses of the individual stages. There are two cases to consider:
1. Each stage has a different lower critical frequency and a different upper critical frequency.
2. Each stage has the same lower critical frequency and the same upper critical frequency.
Different critical frequencies• When the lower critical frequency, fL of each amplifier stage is
different, the dominant lower critical frequency f’Lequals the critical frequency of the stage with the highest fL.
• When the upper critical frequency fH, of each amplifier stage is different, the dominant upper critical frequency f’H equals the critical frequency of the stage with the lowest fH.

Equal Critical Frequencies
• When each amplifier stage in a multistage arrangement has equal critical frequencies, the dominant lower critical frequency is increased by a factor of 1:2
• When the upper critical frequencies of each stage are all the same, the dominant upper critical frequency is reduced by a factor of

Total Frequency Response of a Multistage Amplifier
Once the cutoff frequencies have been determined for each stage (taking into account the shared capacitances), they can be plotted.
Again note the highest Lower Cutoff Frequency (fL) and the lowest Upper Cutoff Frequency (fH)
are closest to the actual response of the amplifier.
