An Efficient Bias Circuit for Hearing Aid using Discrete BJT

In this paper, we propose an efficient bias circuit for hearing aid using discrete BJT. The collector feedback bias circuit, widely used for the hearing aid, has a resister for negative feedback. As the resistor affects AC and DC simultaneously, it is quite difficult to adjust amplifier gain without changing DC bias point. The previous bias circuit also has weak point to be oscillated by the positive feedback of power noise if gain of hearing aid is high. In the proposed circuit, we can reduce the two weak points of the previous circuit by adding a resistor which is ${\beta}$ times larger than collector resistor between base of BJT and power supply.
