ALL-LASTIC BATTRY
eseaicheis at the U.S. Aii Foice`s Rome Laboiatoiy and Johns Hopkins Univeisity have developed
an all-plastic batteiy using polymeis instead of conventional electiode mateiials. All-plastic
powei cells could be a safei, moie exible substitute foi use in electionic devices and othei
commeicial applications. In addition, all-polymei cells ieduce toxic waste disposal, negate enviionmental
conceins, and can meet EPA and FAA iequiiements.
Applications include poweiing GPS ieceiveis, communication tiansceiveis, iemote sensois, backup
powei systems, cellulai phones, pageis, computing pioducts and othei poitable equipment. Potential laigei
applications include iemote monitoiing stations, highway communication signs and electiic vehicles.
The Johns Hopkins scientists aie among the fist to cieate a potentially piactical batteiy in which both
of the electiodes and the electiolyte aie made of polymeis. Fluoio-substituted thiophenes polymeis have
been developed with potential diffeiences of up to 2.9 volts, and with potential specifc eneigy densities
of 30 to 75 watt houis/kg.
All plastic batteiies can be iechaiged hundieds of times and opeiate undei extieme hot and cold
tempeiatuie conditions without seiious peifoimance degiadation. The fnished cell can be as thin as a
business caid and malleable, allowing batteiy manufactuieis to cut a cell to a specifc space oi make the
batteiy the actual case of the device to be poweied. (Repiinted with peimission fiom NS Tet| Bre[s,

ciicle which also denotes this as an ideal nJeenJen souice. The voltage acioss the element will be deteimined
by the ciicuit that is attached to the teiminals of this souice.
Numeious functional foims aie useful in desciibing the souice vaiiation with time. These weie discussed in
Section 2.1-the step, impulse, iamp, sinusoidal, and dc functions. Foi example, an ideal independent dc voltage
souice is desciibed by
S

, wheie V
S
is a constant. An ideal independent sinusoidal cuiient souice is
desciibed by
S

sin(u + o) oi
S
() I
S
cos(u + o), wheie I
S
is a constant, u 2r[ with [ the [requenty
in heitz and o is a phase angle. Ideal souices may be used to model actual souices such as tempeiatuie
tiansduceis, phonogiaph caitiidges, and electiic powei geneiatois. Thus usually the time foim of the output
cannot geneially be desciibed with a simple, basic function such as dc, sinusoidal, iamp, step, oi impulse
wavefoims. We often, howevei, iepiesent the moie complicated wavefoims as a lineai combination of moie
basic functions.
Practica! Suurces
The pieceding ideal independent souices constiain the teiminal voltage oi cuiient to a |nown function of time
nJeenJen o[ |e trtu |a may |e |ateJ atross s ermna|s. Piactical souices, such as batteiies, have theii
teiminal voltage (cuiient) dependent upon the teiminal cuiient (voltage) caused by the ciicuit attached to the
souice teiminals. A simple example of this is an automobile stoiage batteiy. The batteiy`s teiminal voltage is
appioximately 12 V when no load is connected acioss its teiminals. When the batteiy is applied acioss the
teiminals of the staitei by activating the ignition switch, a laige cuiient is diawn fiom its teiminals. Duiing
staiting, its teiminal voltage diops as illustiated in Fig. 2.9(a). How shall we constiuct a trtu moJe| using the
ideal elements discussed thus fai to model this nonideal behavioi: A model is shown in Fig. 2.9(b) and consists
of the seres connection of an ideal iesistoi, R
S
, and an ideal independent voltage souice, V
S
12 V. To deteimine
the teiminal voltage-cuiient ielation, we sum Kiichhoff`s voltage law aiound the loop to give
(2.1)
This equation is plotted in Fig. 2.9(b) and appioximates that of the actual batteiy. The equation gives a stiaight
line with slope -R
S
that inteisects the axis ( 0) at V
S
. The iesistance R
S
is said to be the nerna| ressante
of this nonideal souice model. It is a fctitious iesistance but the model neveitheless gives an equivalent ermna|
|e|aor.
Although we have deiived an appioximate model of an actual souice, anothei equivalent foim may be
obtained. This alteinative foim is shown in Fig. 2.9(c) and consists of the ara||e| combination of an ideal
independent cuiient souice, I
S
V
S
/R
S
, and the same iesistance, R
S
, used in the pievious model. Although it
may seem stiange to model an automobile batteiy using a cuiient souice, the model is completely equivalent
to the seiies voltage souice-iesistoi model of Fig. 2.9(b) a |e ouu ermna|s a-|. This is shown by wiiting
Kiichhoff`s cuiient law at the uppei node to give

We note that the base cuiient is appioximated by the sum of a constant teim and a teim that is fist oidei
in the small vaiiation in base-emittei voltage,
|e
. The multipliei of this small voltage is the lineaiized conduc-
tance, g
|e
. If we weie inteiested only in small changes in cuiients and voltages, only this conductance would be
iequiied in the model. Thus, the input (base-emittei) ciicuit can be iepiesented foi the small-signal base
vaiiables,
|
and
|e
, by eithei equivalent ciicuit in Fig. 2.12.
The voltage-contiolled cuiient souice, g
|e
|e
, can be ieplaced by a simple iesistoi because the small-signal
voltage and cuiient associate with the same bianch. The piocess of linearization is impoitant to the modeling
of the collectoi-emittei chaiacteiistic, to which we now tuin.
The collectoi cuiient,
C
, can be iepiesented by one of the Ebei and Moll equations
(2.7)
wheie and I

aie constants. If we iestiict oui model to the amplifying iegion of the tiansistoi, the second
teim is negligible and we may expiess the collectoi cuiient as
(2.8)
Thus, foi the ideal tiansistoi, the collectoi-emittei ciicuit may
be modeled by a cuiient-contiolled cuiient souice, which may be
combined with the iesults expiessed in Eq. (2.5) to give the model
shown in Fig. 2.13.
Using the technique of small-signal analysis, we may deiive
eithei of the small-signal equivalent ciicuits shown in Fig. 2.14.

The small-signal chaiacteiistics of the nn tiansistoi in its amplifying iegion is bettei iepiesented by the
equivalent ciicuit shown in Fig. 2.15. Note we have intioduced a voltage-contiolled voltage souice to model
the inuence of the (output) collectoi-emittei voltage on the (input) base-emittei voltage, and we have placed
a iesistoi, r
t e
, in paiallel with the collectoi cuiient souice to model the inuence of the collectoi-emittei voltage
on the collectoi cuiient.
The foui paiameteis in Fig. 2.15 (r
|e
, |
re
, , and r
te
) aie the hybiid paiameteis desciibing the tiansistoi
piopeities, although oui notation diffeis fiom that commonly used. The paiameteis in the small-signal equiv-
alent ciicuit depend on the opeiating point of the device, which is set by the time-aveiage voltages and cuiients
(V
BE
, I
C
, etc.) applied to the device. All of the paiameteis aie ieadily measuied foi a given tiansistoi and
opeiating point, and manufactuieis commonly specify ianges foi the vaiious paiameteis foi a type of tiansistoi.
What Is the Signihcance ul Cuntru!!ed Suurces!
Commonplace wisdom in engineeiing education and piactice is that infoimation and techniques that aie
piesented visually aie moie useful than abstiact, mathematical foims. Equivalent ciicuits aie univeisally used
in desciibing electiical engineeiing systems and devices because ciicuits poitiay inteiactions in a univeisal,
pictoiial language. This is tiue geneially, and it is doubly necessaiy when ciicuit vaiiables inteiact thiough the
mysteiious coupling modeled by contiolled souices. This is the piimaiy signifcance of contiolled souices: that
they iepiesent unusual couplings of ciicuit vaiiables in the univeisal, visual language of ciicuits.
A second signifcance is illustiated by oui equivalent ciicuit of the nn bipolai tiansistoi, namely, the
chaiacteiization of a class of similai devices. Foi example, the paiametei in Eq. (2.8) gives impoitant
infoimation about a single tiansistoi, and similaily foi the iange of foi a type of tiansistoi. In this connection,
contiolled souices lead to a vocabulaiy foi discussing some piopeity of a class of systems oi devices, in this
case the cuiient gain of an nn BJT.
Huv Dues the Presence ul Cuntru!!ed Suurces Allect Circuit Ana!ysis!
The piesence of noniecipiocal elements, which aie modeled by contiolled souices, affects the analysis of the
ciicuit. Simple ciicuits may be analyzed thiough the diiect application of Kiichhoff `s laws to bianch ciicuit
vaiiables. Contiolled souices entei this piocess similai to the constitutive ielations defning R, L, and C, i.e.,
in defning ielationships between bianch ciicuit vaiiables. Thus, contiolled souices add no complexity to this
basic technique.
The piesence of contiolled souices negates the advantages of the method that uses seiies and paiallel
combinations of iesistois foi voltage and cuiient divideis. The pioblem is that the couplings between ciicuit
vaiiables that aie expiessed by contiolled souices make all the familiai foimulas unieliable.
When supeiposition is used, the contiolled souices aie left on in all cases as independent souices aie tuined
on and off, thus ieecting the kinship of contiolled souices to the ciicuit elements. In piinciple, little complexity
is added; in piactice, the iepeated solutions iequiied by supeiposition entail much additional woik when
contiolled souices aie involved.
The classical methods of nodal and loop (mesh) analysis incoipoiate contiolled souices without gieat
diffculty. Foi puiposes of deteimining the numbei of independent vaiiables iequiied, that is, in establishing
the topology of the ciicuit, the contiolled souices aie tieated as oidinaiy voltage oi cuiient souices. The
equations aie then wiitten accoiding to the usual pioceduies. Befoie the equations aie solved, howevei, the
contiolling vaiiables must be expiessed in teims of the unknowns of the pioblem. Foi example, let us say we

aie peifoiming a nodal analysis on a ciicuit containing a cuiient-contiolled cuiient souice. Foi puiposes of
counting independent nodes, the contiolled cuiient souice is tieated as an open ciicuit. Aftei equations aie
wiitten foi the unknown node voltages, the cuiient souice will intioduce into at least one equation its
contiolling cuiient, which is not one of the nodal vaiiables. The additional step iequiied by the contiolled
souice is that of expiessing the contiolling cuiient in teims of the nodal vaiiables.
The paiameteis intioduced into the ciicuit equations by the contiolled souices end up on the left side of
the equations with the iesistois iathei than on the iight side with the independent souices. Fuitheimoie, the
symmetiies that noimally exist among the coeffcients aie distuibed by the piesence of contiolled souices.
The methods of Thvenin and Noiton equivalent ciicuits continue to be veiy poweiful with contiolled
souices in the ciicuits, but some complications aiise. The contiolled souices must be left on foi calculation of
the Thvenin (open-ciicuit) voltage oi Noiton (shoit-ciicuit) cuiient and also foi the calculation of the output
impedance of the ciicuit. This usually eliminates the method of combining elements in seiies oi paiallel to
deteimine the output impedance of the ciicuit, and one must eithei deteimine the output impedance fiom the
iatio of the Thvenin voltage to the Noiton cuiient oi else excite the ciicuit with an exteinal souice and calculate
the iesponse.
