13 Conclusions Resistors g m, r π, r e, r o are equivalent circuit model parameters, not parasitic resistances. Resistor r x, the ohmic base resistance, is a parasitic resistance. v BE V I S e term T from Ebers-Moll model linearized by limiting the ac signal amplitude. 13

(approximations) 6)CC & CB Amplifier Configurations 14

15 Amplifier Design with PNP Transistors Bipolar process are optimized for NPN performance: a. PNP have lower β than NPN transistors. b. PNP have lower f T than NPN transistors. Example: Intersil CA3096 NPN & PNP array (Data Sheet) NPN: h fe = β = 390, f T = 280 Mhz (I C = 1mA) PNP: h fe = β = 47, f T < 10 Mhz (I C = 1mA) c. NPN transistors are typically used where high gain and f T are needed, e.g. amplifier transistor d. PNP transistors are used where gain and f T are not as needed, e.g. current sources and active loads. e. When NPNs and PNPs are used together, two power supplies are needed. 15

20 NPN vs. PNP CE Design Conclusions DC Bias design same for both NPN & PNP. Be careful! PNP DC I & V are inverse of NPN DC I & V. PNP DC supply voltage V CC polarity is inverse of NPN. AC design the same for both NPN & PNP. Small signal models are identical. Be careful! PNP ac current directions are inverse of DC current directions. 20
