Line 1: '''Small-signal modeling''' is a common analysis method used in [[electrical engineering]] to describe [[nonlinear device]]s in terms of [[linear equations]]. ~~The basic idea~~This is todone by first ~~calculate~~calculating (possibly by an [[iterative]] process if the circuit is complex) the ~~levels~~[[DC]] [[biasing\|bias]] point (that ~~will~~is, bethe [[voltage]]/[[current]] levels present when no signal is applied,) and then ~~form~~forming linear approximations ~~for the deviations from that~~about ~~base~~this ~~state~~point. ==Motivation==
