Effect of Rs and RL
 Effect of Rs and RL
The gain obtained with a source resistance in place will always be less
than that obtained under loaded or unloaded conditions due to the
drop in applied voltage across the source resistance.

In total, therefore, the highest gain is obtained under no-load

conditions and the lowest gain with a source impedance and load in
place. That is:
