R-C coupled

R-C coupled coupling is the most widely used method of coupling in multistage amplifiers. In this case the Resistance R is the resistor connected at the collector terminal and the capacitor C is connected in between the amplifiers. It is also called a blocking capacitor, since it will block DC voltage. The main disadvantage of this coupling method is that it causes some loss for the low frequency signals. However, for amplifying signals of frequencies greater than 10 Hz, this coupling is the best and least expensive method. It is usually applied in small signal amplifiers, such as in record players, tape recorders, radio receivers, etc.
