What does the h-parameter description treat the transistor as?

  • A.A current source in parallel with its own output capacitance
  • B.A three-terminal device described by its terminal currents alone
  • C.A two-port network with four parameters
  • D.A voltage-controlled current source with a resistive load

Answer: C

The h-parameters describe the device as a two-port black box with an input impedance, a reverse voltage ratio, a forward current ratio and an output conductance. The voltage-controlled current source picture is the hybrid-pi model that largely replaced it. The black-box approach makes no assumption about the physics inside, which is its strength for measurement and its weakness for insight. Checking the units of each quantity catches a wrong formula before the arithmetic begins.
