Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to calculate the voltage drop across a closed transistor switch in the presence of intermediate-level operating conditions. The problem is formulated to include the important one-dimensional effects associated with intermediate-level operation in such a way that the low-level theory is included as a special case. Experimental verification of the theory has been obtained over a moderately wide range of base drives.
