Abstract
The Ebers-Moll model, which is applicable to static or quasi-static conditions, is used as a basis for developing a simple method for the evaluation of harmonic distortion generated in bipolar transistor amplifiers. The Ebers-Moll equations are transformed into the desired forms using a Maclaurin Series expansion. A computer program is written to provide numerical results of the method, and these prediction are compared to measured distortion values.
