1 High Frequency BJT Model & Cascode BJT Amplifier 1
2 Gain of 10 Amplifier Non-ideal Transistor C in R 1 V CC R 2 v s Gain starts dropping at > 1MHz. Why! Because of internal transistor capacitances that we have ignored in our low frequency and mid-band models. 2

Midband ALL capacitances are neglected, i.e. External Cs s.c. Internal Cs o.c. 3dB 20 log 10 A v db High Frequency Band Due to BJT parasitic capacitors C π and C µ.

7 High Frequency Small-signal Model The transistor parasitic capacitances have a strong effect on circuit high frequency performance! C π attenuates base signal, decreasing v be since X Cπ 0 (short circuit) at very high-frequencies. As we will see later; C µ is principal cause of gain loss at high-frequencies. At the base base-collector C µ looks like a capacitor of value k C µ between base-emitter, where k > 1 and may be >> 1. r x This phenomenon is called the Miller Effect. 7

10 Introducing the Miller Effect b c v o v s r C v be g m v be e The feedback connection of between base-collector causes it to appear in the amplifier like a large capacitor 1 K between the base-emitter terminals. This phenomenon is called the Miller effect and capacitor multiplier 1 K acting on equals the CE amplifier mid-band gain, i.e. K= A v mid = g m NOTE: CB and CC amplifiers do not suffer from the Miller effect, since in these amplifiers, one side of is connected directly to ground. 10

31 The Cascode Amplifier A two transistor amplifier used to obtain simultaneously: 1. Reasonably high input impedance. 2. Reasonable voltage gain. 3. Wide bandwidth. None of the conventional single transistor designs will satisfy all of the criteria above. The cascode amplifier will satisfy all of these criteria. A cascode is a CE Stage cascaded with a CB Stage. (Historical Note: the cascode amplifier was a cascade of grounded cathode and grounded grid vacuum tube stages hence the name cascode, which has remained in modern terminology.) 31
