In Fig. 10 is shown a gener-alized network representing the transistor in which the input terminalsare emitter-base and the output terminals are collector-base.

These equationsmay be represented by any one of a large number of equivalent cir-cuits of which the one shown in Fig. 11 is perhaps currently most this circuit Vg is very nearly the ac forward impedance of the emit-ter barrier, Vc is very nearly the ac reverse impedance of the collectorbarrier, Vb is the feedback impedance of the bulk germanium commonto both, and a is the circuit current gain representing carrier collec-tion and multiplication if any. It turns out this is very nearly equalto the
