Expanding wc∫jθθ and τcf in (2.31) in a Taylor series about vb yields the linearized
equations for the gating variables
a = ⅛(⅞)⅞-w
τcf(vb)
In (2.30), if the product of gating variables is written as
Fc / ∖ 4cf
Fbc(ε) = ɪɪ Iwbcf + εwbcf(t) j
∕=1 × ×
then differentiating with respect to ε yields
⅛(≈) = ∑

The order 0 and order ε terms of Fbc are
