lacking bias current shorted the signal to ac ground

 RE provides a path for the bias current at the cost of lowering the input impedance.
 RE shunts the input source current to ground, thus wasting the signal.

vout RC  Effect of bond wire inductance in a CB stage

vin RB /(   1)  re  RE
CB ■ The CB gain reduction as a result of an impedance in
series with the base
 except for a negative sign, the two stages exhibit ■ This effect is especially pronounced at high frequencies
equal gains. ■ a 5-mm bond wire has an inductance of about 5nH,
 RB reduces the voltage gain exhibiting an impedance of 157 ohm at 5 GHz.

 must ensure I1  I B to minimize sensitivity to β

R2
Vb  VCC
R1  R2

 a resistance in series with the base reduces the voltage gain.


■ For this reason, a “bypass capacitor” is often tied from the base to ground, acting as a short circuit at
frequencies of interest

Common-Collector Amplifiers (Emitter Followers)
CC with Biasing
(a) (b) (c)

 (a) the current flowing through R1 and R2 is chosen to be much greater than the base current.
 (b) the emitter follower can operate with a base voltage near VCC
 the collector is tied to VCC → allowing the same voltage for the base without driving Q1 into saturation
 RBIB is chosen much less than the voltage drop across RE, thus lowering the sensitivity to β.
 the bias current of the follower varies with the supply voltage.

 (c) To avoid this effect, integrated circuits bias the follower by means of a current source.

Large-Signal EM Model

 Ohmic resistances
■ rC, rE, rx for the collector, emitter, base region

 Nonlinear capacitances CBE, CBC


■ models the dynamic operation
■ includes a diffusion component and a depletion-layer
component
■ CJS : a depletion capacitance for the collector-substrate
junction of IC transistors.

 For small signals


■ the SPICE model reduces to the hybrid-π model augmented
with rC, rE, and CJS

Incheon National University – 31 – Chong-Gun Yu


Gummel-Poon Model
 The EM model lacks a representation of some second-order effects
■ assumes βF and βR to be constant
■ neglects the variation of the current gains, βF and βR with the current iC

 To account for this and other second-order effects


■ SPICE uses a more accurate, yet more complex model → the Gummel-Poon model

 BF and BR
■ the ideal maximum values of the forward and reverse dc current gains
■ are not equal to the constant current-independent parameters βF(βdc)and βR used in the EM model

 In SPICE, the Gummel-Poon model automatically simplifies to the EM model when certain model
parameters are not specified (VAF, VAR, IKF, IKR)
