a. Draw the linearized model of the amplifier by replacing the small signal

model of the
transistor.
b. Write stamps for each element of the circuit.
c. The general equation format for the AC analysis is (

] . Formulate
the circuit according to this format.
d. Setup a numerical algorithm to solve above system of equations.
e. Sketch a flow chart to describe the simulation of AC Analysis of the circuit.
f. Develop MATLAB codes and obtain Gain versus Frequency and Phase versus Frequency
plots of the circuit for the frequency range of 1Hz to 100MHz.
