    This is a schematic of the basic emitter follower circuit. Just a transistor and a single resistor from the emitter to ground.

    Writing the voltage equation around the input loop,

    Vi - Vbe - Vo = 0 ---------- 1

    Making Vbe very small or the gain large, we have, Vi =(approx.) = Vo

    The ...
