The emitter resistor in a bipolar transistor circuit is used for:

• reducing amplifier noise

• increasing the gain of the stage

• biasing the transistor

• stabilizing the stage against the effects of temperature change and against thermal runaway

• positive feedback

Removing the capacitor across an emitter resistor in a transistor amplifier will:

• increase the gain of the amplifier

• increase the amplifier frequency response
