Technology

When using a common NPN BJT amplifier at high frequencies, which effect becomes prominent due to internal transistor capacitances?

A)Miller effect reduces gain
B)Early effect worsens linearity
C)Thermal runaway permanently destroys
D)Kirk effect increases distortion

💡 Explanation

The Miller effect becomes prominent at high frequencies, because capacitive coupling between the base and collector is amplified by the transistor's gain, therefore effectively reducing the input impedance and gain, rather than the Early effect altering performance at high collector voltages.
