Wrote the following:
|Hello Kevin,
|
|I have the complete high-frequency equivalent circuit for the common-emitter
|amplifier in front of me along with formulae for the current and voltage
|gains(Electronics for the Physicist by Delaney).
How can you have a formula for the voltage gain without the device
being immersed into a network of source, source impedance and load
impedance?
|I do not see however a
|comparison between theory and experiment. I have this thought in the back of
|my mind that it was not possible to model even a single transistor amplifier
|well but clearly I'm very much mistaken. The low frequency and high
|frequency equivalent circuits are different and I think this led me to
|believe that the entire frequency response is the result of stitching
|together these two responses and that seemed somehow unsatisfactory to me.
|You are far ahead of me on this although to be fair to myself I could get up
|to speed with further study.
|
