A certain common-source JFET has a voltage gain of 10. If the source bypass capacitor is removed, _____________(a) the voltage gain will increase(b) transconductance will increase(c) voltage gain will decrease(d) the Q-point will shiftI got this question in a job interview.My enquiry is from Transconductance Amplifiers in portion Differential and Multistage Amplifiers of Electronic Devices & Circuits

Answer»

Correct option is (c) voltage gain will decrease

Easiest explanation: In common SOURCE JFET, The MAIN purpose of a source bypass CAPACITOR is to provide additional gain at AC. Here, the common-source JFET has a voltage gain of 10; which INCLUDES the additionalAC gain provided. If the source bypass capacitor is removed, then the voltage gain will eventually decrease.
