Özet

Starting from the modified Ebers-Moll model which represents the Early effect more accurately than conventional models with the Early voltage, new expressions to calculate the harmonic distortion coefficients of active-loaded BJT amplifiers are derived and applied to the determination of the optimum operating point, where the total harmonic distortion is at a minimum. The results are not obtainable with SPICE, therefore derived expressions provide the possibility of completing the simulation with manual calculations.
