Objectives: After completing this experiment, you should be able to, 1. Calculate and measure the DC & AC parameters of a Common-Emitter (CE) amplifier. 2. Observe the effect of a by-pass

capacitor and a load resistance on amplifier voltage gain./n5. Calculate the DC parameters listed in Table 2 below for the circuit shown above.
