mode and then superimpose a small voltage signal vbe to the base.

Graphical Analysis
• Can be useful to understand the operation of BJT
circuits.
• First, establish DC conditions by finding IB (or VBE)
• Second, figure out the DC operating point for IC
VCC
Can get a feel for whether the BJT will stay in active region of operation
– What happens if RC is larger or smaller?

Small-Signal Models Analysis
Steps for using small-signal models
1. Determine the DC operating point of the BJT
- in particular, the collector current
2. Calculate small-signal model parameters: rbe
3. Eliminate DC sources
– replace voltage sources with short circuits and
current sources with open circuits
4. Replace BJT with equivalent small-signal models
5. Analysis

C-C amp characteristics:
• Voltage gain is less than unity, but close (to unity) since β is large and rbe is small.
• Also called an emitter follower since the emitter follows the input signal.
• Input resistance is higher, output resistance is lower.
- Used for connecting a source with a large Rs to a load with low
resistance.

CB amp characteristics:
• current gain has little dependence on β
• is non-inverting
• most commonly used as a unity-gain current amplifier or current buffer and not
as a voltage amplifier: accepts an input signal current with low input resistance
and delivers a nearly equal current with high output impedance
• most significant advantage is its excellent frequency response

The drops of voltage gain (output/input) is mainly due to:
1、Increasing reactance of Cs , Cc , Ce (at low f)
2、Parasitic capacitive elements of the network (at high f)
3、Dissappearance of changing current (for transformer coupled amp.)
