BJT Amplifier
Once the DC operating point is set, the AC input and output are coupled to the amplifier with capacitors so as not to perturb the operating point.

BJT Amp Small-Signal ModelConsider the capacitors as short circuits for the small signal AC and open circuit for DC to obtain the model below. The resistor ro accounts for the small slope of the I-
V characteristics in the forward-active region (often assumed to be infinite). The resistance r is found from linearizing the nonlinear base-emitter characteristic,
which is an exponential diode curve.

Taylor Series
Recall that a function can be expressed as a polynomial through a Taylor Series expansion:
where a is a point about which the function is expanded. Note that if a represents a quiescent point for a voltage, then the reciprocal of the coefficient first linear represents the small signal impedance.

SPICE Example
The amplifier circuit can be constructed in B2SPICE using the BJT npn (Q) part from the menu. The “edit simulation model” option can then be used to set the “ideal forward beta”
The input can be set to a sinusoid at desired frequency and amplitude for a transient analysis.
SPICE can also do a Fourier analysis to observed effects of clipping and distortion. There should be no harmonic energy for perfect amplification.
