🔍 Key Concepts

• Role of a coupling capacitor between stages in an amplifier • How an open circuit affects AC signal flow versus DC bias conditions • Difference between signal amplification problems and biasing or oscillation issues

💭 Think About

• What is the main job of a coupling capacitor between amplifier stages—does it mainly pass AC signal, set DC bias, or filter hum? • If the capacitor goes open, will the AC input signal still reach the amplifier stage? What will happen to the DC operating points in that stage? • Which answer choices describe problems that depend on the stage still receiving a varying signal versus being effectively cut off?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify whether an open coupling capacitor stops AC signal flow, DC flow, or both between stages. • Decide if the DC bias voltages inside the affected amplifier stage would likely change or remain normal when the coupling cap is open. • Check which options describe symptoms (no signal, bias shift, oscillation, hum) and match them to what you’d expect when the input path is physically broken.
