&n order to operate the transistor in the desired region" we have to apply an external dc voltage of correct polarity and magnitude to the two (unctions of the transistor. This is called biasing of the transistor.
)hen we bias a transistor" we establish certain current and voltage conditions for the transistor. These conditions are called operating conditions or dc operating point or quiescent point. This point must be stable for proper operation of transistor. !n important and common type of biasing is called *ixed #iasing. The circuit is very simple and uses only few components. #ut the circuit does not chec$ the collector current which increases with the rise in temperature.

A cascade amplifier has many of the same benefits as a cascode. A cascade is basically a differential amplifier with one input grounded and the side with the real input has no load. It can also be seen as a common collector (emitter follower) followed by a common base. By cascading a CE stage followed by an emitter-follower (CC) stage, a good voltage amplifier results. The CE input resistance is high and CC output resistance is low. The CC contributes no increase in voltage gain but provides a near voltage-source (low resistance) output so that the gain is nearly independent of load resistance. The high input resistance of the CE stage makes the input voltage nearly independent of input-source resistance. Multiple CE stages can be cascaded and CC stages inserted between them to reduce attenuation due to inter-stage loading.
