Figure 6.39 The amplifier circuit of Fig. 6.36(a) with the dc sources (VBE and VCC) eliminated (short-circuited). Thus only the signal
components are present. Note that this is a representation of the signal operation of the BJT and not an actual amplifier circuit.

A.4.5 Separating Signal and DC quantities
• Voltage and current are composed of DC and signal components.
• since ideal dc supply voltage does not change, the signal voltage
across it will be zero.

A.4.8 Application of small signal equivalent circuits
1. Determine DC operating point of BJT (particularly Ic)
2. Calculate values of small signal model parameters such as
gm = Ic/VT, r = /gm, and re = VT/IE.
3. eliminate DC sources by replacing DC voltage with short
circuit and DC current with open circuit.
4. Replace BJT with one of small signal equivalent circuit models.
5. Analyze the resulting circuit !

CC amplifier is commonly used and known by name of emitter follower.

Figure 5.10 Cross-section of a CMOS integrated circuit. Note that the PMOS transistor is formed in a separate n-type region, known as an n
well. Another arrangement is also possible in which an n-type body is used and the n device is formed in a p well. Not shown are the
connections made to the p-type body and to the n well; the latter functions as the body terminal for the p-channel device.
