Transconductance, gm shows a measure of how well the
transistor converts voltage to current.
It will later be shown that gm is one of the most important
parameters in circuit design.

Transconductance and Ic
The figure above shows that for a given VBE swing, the
current excursion around IC2 is larger than it would be
around IC1. This is because gm is larger IC2.
