Determine, to a first approximation, the frequency at which the small-signal current gain decreases to 1 / \sqrt{2} of its low-frequency value.
Consider the simplified hybrid-pi circuit shown in Figure 12.41. We are ignoring C_{\mu}, C_{s}, r_{\mu}, C_{j e}, r_{0}, and the series resistances. We must emphasize that this is a first-order calculation and that C_{\mu} normally cannot be neglected.
