Current flows thru the resistor
until +600 mV is reached, then
flows thru the Diode.
The plateau is representative of
the voltage drop of the diode
while it is conducting.

Linear Small Signal Equivalent
Circuits (1)
When considering electronic circuits in which dc supply
voltages are used to bias a nonlinear devices at their
operating points and a small ac signal is injected into the
circuit to find circuit response:
Split the analysis of the circuit into two parts:
(a)analyze the dc circuit to find the operating point
(b)consider the small ac signal
Linear Small Signal Equivalent
Circuits (1)
Since virtually any nonlinear ch-tic is approximately linear
(straight) if we consider a sufficiently small segment
THEN
We can find a linear small-signal equivalent circuit for the
nonlinear device to use in the ac analysis
The small signal diode circuit can be substituted by
a single equivalent resistor.

dc supply voltage results in operation at Q
An ac signal is injected into the circuit and
swings the instantaneous point of operation
slightly above and below the Q point
