  • Effect of various capacitors on the analysis
  • High-frequency model of a transistor
  • Gain bandwidth product
7.1 INTRODUCTION

The analysis of a transistor amplifier is considered in this chapter. Since the transistor is not a linear device, general analytical analysis is not possible. The analysis carried out is based on various ...
