Term: Operating Point
Definition: The DC voltage and current conditions of a transistor that determine its behavior in circuit operation.
Term: Current Gain
Definition: The ratio of output current to input current in an amplifier, typically denoted as close to unity for Common Base configurations.
Term: Voltage Swing
Definition: The range of permissible voltage changes around the DC operating point without distortion or clipping.
