(Fig. 4.43a)
Assuming sufficiently large values for the coupling capacitors
(CC1 and CC2) and the bypass capacitor (CS) so that their
reactances are very small at the frequency of operation the
equivalent small-signal circuit for this amplifier is shown in Fig.
4.43(b):
(Fig. 4.43b)
The text mentions performing the small-signal analysis directly
on the amplifier circuit, as illustrated in Fig. 4.43(c). We do not
recommend this approach. It is better to take the time and
construct the small-signal equivalent circuit, as were doing
here.

Summary
In summary, we find for the CS small-signal amplifier that it has
a
o High input resistance [see (1)].
o Relatively high small-signal voltage gain [see (7)].
o Very high small-signal current gain [see (10)].
o Relatively high output resistance [see (11)].
