The gain of an amplifier is affected by the capacitance associated with its circuit. This
capacitance reduces the gain in both the low and high frequency ranges of operation.
The Bode Plot may look something like this where there is a low frequency band, a
midfrequency band and a high frequency band.
The reduction of gain in the low
frequency band is due to the coupling
and bypass capacitors selected. They
are essentially short circuits in the
mid and high bands.
The reduction of gain in the high
frequency band is due to the internal
capacitance of the amplifying device,
e.g., BJT, FET, etc.. This capacitance
is represented by capacitors in the
small signal equivalent circuit for
these devices. They are essentially
open circuits in the low and mid
bands.
First, let’s continue to study the small
signal equivalent circuits.

Small Signal Equivalent Circuits and Parameters for the BJT
rπ-β Model
•
When the AC Portion of the input is small around the Q point (<<VT in
value) then we can approximate the operation of transistor by an
equivalent circuit consisting of a resistor, rπ=VT/IBQ and a current
source, βib, where ib is the small signal component of the base current:

A more thorough Equivalent Circuit may be needed to specify the

The parameters defined by this equivalent circuit as
usually provided by transistor manufacturers to describe
the performance of the BJT. For example,  and hfe are
typically given in BJT data sheets.

Hybrid-π Model for the BJT
• Another model typically specified by BJT
manufacturers and is used for frequency analysis
• Includes
– Resistance to model the base-emitter junction, the base
to collector junction, and the collector to emitter path
– Capacitance to model base-emitter junction and the
base to collector junction
– A dependent (forward) current source in the collector

rx called the base spreading resistance and represents the resistance of the base-emitter junction
rπ represents the dynamic resistance for small signal analysis and depends on the Q-point of the
design - rπ=VT/IBQ
rμ represents the feedback from the collector to the base and is related to the hybrid parameter
hre= rπ /(rπ+ rμ)
ro represents the resistance from the collector to the emitter and is related to the hybrid parameter
hoe ≈ 1/ ro and is also related to the EARLY Voltage by VA/ICQ
Cμ is the depletion capacitance of the collector-base junction
Cπ is the capacitance of the base-emitter junction and depends on the Q-point
gmvπ is the amplification factor and is equal to β ib.
Transition frequency, ft = β /[2πrπ(Cμ+Cπ)], when |Ic/Ib| is unity when the collector is grounded
for ac.

Low Frequency Response of RC-Coupled
Amplifiers
• Coupling Capacitors
– To couple the various stages of a multi-stage amplifier
• For AC performance essentially a short circuit and AC current flows
from one stage to the next stage
– To support the biasing of each stage individually:
• For DC performance: open circuit and no biasing current flows from
one stage to another
• ByPass Capacitors
– To support the addition of a resistor for biasing purposes only
• For DC performance: open circuit and current flows through the
biasing resistor
– Short-circuit the biasing resistor for AC performance.
• For AC performance: short circuit and no current flows through the
resistor (shorted out/bypassed)

Bypass Capacitors
• The value of a bypass capacitor is chosen to
provide a short circuit at a frequency sufficiently
low than the band pass of amplifier design
• For a emitter follower, it can be shown
f1=1/(2π R’E CE )

R’E is the equivalent resistance reflected into the
emitter circuit
