The re and hybrid models will be used to analyze AC small-signal transistor circuits.
The input (Vi) is applied to the base and the output (Vo) is from the collector.
The Common-Emitter is characterized as having high input impedance and low output
impedance with a high voltage and current gain.

Slide 17 Phase Relationship
A CE amplifier configuration will always have a phase relationship between input and
output is 180 degrees. This is independent of the DC bias.
You may recognize this as the Common-Collector configuration. Indeed they are the same
circuit.
Note the input is on the base and the output is from the emitter.

A CC amplifier or Emitter Follower configuration has no phase shift between input and
output.
The input (Vi) is applied to the emitter and the output (Vo) is from the collector.
The Common-Base is characterized as having low input impedance and high output
impedance with a current gain less than 1 and a very high voltage gain.

Slide 46a Summary Table
1. Check the DC bias voltages – if not correct check power supply, resistors, transistor.
Also check to ensure that the coupling capacitor between amplifier stages is OK.
2. Check the AC voltages – if not correct check transistor, capacitors and the loading effect
of the next stage.
