Magnitude of the ac signal applied for amplification must be
small so that
� the transistor operates in the linear region for the whole
BJT with small ac input signal
Small ac signal refers to the input signal (vbe) whose magnitude
is much small than thermal voltage (VT) i.e. vbe << VT
3
� the transistor operates in the linear region for the whole
cycle of input (called as a linear amplifier)
� the transistor is never driven into saturation or cut-off region
� On the other hand, if the input signal is too large. The
fluctuations along the load line will drive the transistor into
either saturation or cut off. This clips the peaks of the input
and the amplifier is no longer linear.

Small Signal Analysis
If an ac+dc input signal the total vBE becomes
vBE = vbe + VBE
The collector current becomesiC = IS exp(vbe + VBE ) /VT
iC = IS exp(VBE / VT ) exp(vbe / VT )
i = I exp(v / V )
5
iC = IC exp(vbe / VT )
For small signal vbe << VT (10mV) hence
iC = IC (1+ vbe / VT )iC = IC + IC vbe / VT
The ac component of the collector current is: ic = IC vbe / VT
It represents the slope of iC-vBE curve at the Q point.

The small signal approximation implies

The small signal analysis suggests that for a small signal, transistor behaves as
a voltage controlled current source. The input port of the controlled current
source is between base and emitter and output port is in between collector and
emitter.
