Chapter 5: BJT AC Analysis Two-Port Systems Approach This approach: • Reduces a circuit to a two-port system • Provides a “Thévenin look” at the output terminals • Makes it easier to determine the effects of a changing load With Vi set to 0 V: ZTh Zo Ro The voltage across the open terminals is: ETh AvNLVi where AvNL is the no-load voltage gain.

Effect of Load Impedance on Gain This model can be applied to any current- or voltage- controlled amplifier. Adding a load reduces the gain of the amplifier: Vo RL A v A vNL Vi RL Ro Zi Ai A v R L Electronic Devices and Circuit Theory, 10/e Copyright ©2009 by Pearson Education, Inc. Robert L.

Effect of Source Impedance on Gain The fraction of applied signal that reaches the input of the amplifier is: R i Vs Vi R i Rs The internal resistance of the signal source reduces the overall gain: Vo Ri A vs A vNL Vs Ri Rs Electronic Devices and Circuit Theory, 10/e Copyright ©2009 by Pearson Education, Inc.

Cascaded Systems • The output of one amplifier is the input to the next amplifier • The overall voltage gain is determined by the product of gains of the individual stages • The DC bias circuits are isolated from each other by the coupling capacitors • The DC calculations are independent of the cascading • The AC calculations for gain and impedance are interdependent Electronic Devices and Circuit Theory, 10/e Copyright ©2009 by Pearson Education, Inc.

This arrangement provides high input impedance but a low voltage gain. The low voltage gain of the input stage reduces the Miller input capacitance, making this combination suitable for high- frequency applications.

Darlington Connection The Darlington circuit provides a very high current gain—the product of the individual current gains: bD = b1b2 The practical significance is that the circuit provides a very high input impedance.

Feedback Pair This is a two-transistor circuit that operates like a Darlington pair, but it is not a Darlington pair. It has similar characteristics: • High current gain • Voltage gain near unity • Low output impedance • High input impedance The difference is that a Darlington uses a pair of like transistors, whereas the feedback-pair configuration uses complementary transistors.
