    Question

    An amplifier has voltage gain and current gain of 10 and 100 respectively. The voltage, current and power gain in decibels, respectively, will be:

    A.

    12.16 and 20 dB

    B.

    20,40 and 30 dB

    C.

    10,100 and 1000 dB

    D.

    40,60 and 50 dB

    Correct option is B

    To determine the voltage gain, current gain, and power gain in decibels (dB), we use the following formulas:

    1. Voltage Gain in dBAv(dB)=20logAvA_v(dB) = 20 \log A_v

    Given Av=10A_v = 10

    Av(dB)=20logAvA_v(dB) = 20 \log A_v

    Av(dB)=20log10=20×1=20 dBA_v(dB) = 20 \log 10 = 20 \times 1 = 20 \text{ dB}

    Current Gain in dB: Ai(dB)=20logAiA_i(dB) = 20 \log A_i

    Given Ai=100A_i = 100

    Ai(dB)=20log100=20×2=40 dBA_i(dB) = 20 \log 100 = 20 \times 2 = 40 \text{ dB}

    Power gain is given by: Ap=Av×AiA_p = A_v \times A_i

    Ap=10×100=1000A_p = 10 \times 100 = 1000

    Ap(dB)=10logApA_p(dB) = 10 \log A_p

    Ap(dB)=10log1000=10×3=30 dBA_p(dB) = 10 \log 1000 = 10 \times 3 = 30 \text{ dB}

    The voltage, current, and power gains in decibels are  20, 40, and 30 dB\text{ 20, 40, and 30 dB}. ​
