RCA 75,015, Abstract of the Disclosure A gain-controlled amplifier is provided which employs a controllable alternating-current resistance device. The device is constructed in a similar manner as a vertical PNP transistor, having an emitter region of high conductivity P+ material, a P type collector region, and an intervening region of high resistivity (intrinsic) N type base material. An N+ base contact region is separated from the P+ emitter region by an expanse of the intrinsic material which establishes a separation which is greater than the diffusion length of carriers injected into the intrinsic region. The base emitter junction of the device which is formed by the N+ base contact …
