Figure (i): Low Frequency Model for CE Amplifier with Coupling Capacitor
For large values of emitter bypass capacitor (CE), the low frequency gain does not experience any reduction in its
value and the emitter resistance ‘RE’ is effectively bypassed.
The reactance of coupling capacitor (CC) is negligible for mid frequency range.
The lower 3-dB frequency (f1) is given as,
f1= '
1
2 ( )s i CR R Cπ + ... (1)
Where, R'1 = R1 || R2 || Ri
Ri = hie (for ideal CE)and Ri ~ hie + (1 + hfe) RCE (when capacitors series resistance is considered).Therefore, inorder to achieve good low frequency response, the capacitors CC and CE must be maintained large.
Q2. (a) A transistor supplies 0.8 W to a 5 k load. The zero signal DC collector current is 30 mA and theDC collector current with signal is 36 mA. Determine the percent second-harmonic distortion.

From figure (1) it is clear that the output current generated depends on the input base current. But, FET being avoltage controlled device, the output current generated must depend on the input voltage, which is not possible using h-parameter model.
In addition to the above characteristic, the presence of feedback from output to input through hre
parameter is alsomakes the h-parameter models invalid for FET as shown in figure (1).
Thus, a FET amplifier cannot be analyzed using h-parameter model. However, the FET model shown in figure (2) is alow frequency model and is not valid in the high frequency range.
(b) Derive an expression for transconductance using FET model.
Answer : April/May-12, Set-3, Q5(b) M[6]

and given by,
