Multi-stage amplifier help
I designed a multi-stage amplifier (I know, so original) for my circuits class. It follows all the parameters that are needed:
Vs (sine wave) of 10 mV pk-pk
Vdc of 15 V
Gain of -250 without load (2.5 ...

Is there a way to get rid of voltage clippings across a load, so that the voltage output waveform across it is a sine wave?
So, we've been assigned to simulate a circuit to drive an 8ohm 0.25 watts speaker/load with a 3V voltage supply (DC) and a test input of 300mV peak-to-peak, 1kHz zero-offset sine-wave. (No additional ...

Amplifying audio on piezo buzzer
I want to output an audio signal from a uC to a piezo buzzer. I first tried the obvious solution with a single transistor in series with the buzzer, but at 3V the sound volume was a bit too low.
The ...
