2. EE105 Fall 2007 Lecture 20, Slide 2 Prof. Liu, UC Berkeley
Review: MOSFET Amplifier Design
• A MOSFET amplifier circuit should be designed to
1. ensure that the MOSFET operates in the saturation region,
2. allow the desired level of DC current to flow, and
3. couple to a small-signal input source and to an output “load”.
Proper “DC biasing” is required!
(DC analysis using large-signal MOSFET model)
• Key amplifier parameters:
(AC analysis using small-signal MOSFET model)
– Voltage gain Av vout/vin
– Input resistance Rin resistance seen between the input node
and ground (with output terminal floating)
– Output resistance Rout resistance seen between the output
node and ground (with input terminal grounded)
3. EE105 Fall 2007 Lecture 20, Slide 3 Prof. Liu, UC Berkeley
MOSFET Models
• The large-signal model is used to determine the DC
operating point (VGS, VDS, ID) of the MOSFET.
• The small-signal model is used to determine how the
output responds to an input signal.
4. EE105 Fall 2007 Lecture 20, Slide 4 Prof. Liu, UC Berkeley
Comparison of Amplifier Topologies
Common Source
• Large Av < 0
- degraded by RS
• Large Rin
– determined by biasing
circuitry
• Rout RD
• ro decreases Av & Rout
but impedance seen
looking into the drain
can be “boosted” by
source degeneration
Common Gate
• Large Av > 0
-degraded by RS
• Small Rin
- decreased by RS
• Rout RD
• ro decreases Av & Rout
but impedance seen
looking into the drain
can be “boosted” by
source degeneration
Source Follower
• 0 < Av ≤ 1
• Large Rin
– determined by
biasing circuitry
• Small Rout
- decreased by RS
• ro decreases Av &
Rout

CS Stage vs. CG Stage
• With the input signal applied at different locations, these circuits
behave differently, although they are identical in other aspects.

Composite Stage Example 1
• By replacing M1 and the current source with a Thevenin
equivalent circuit, and recognizing the right side as a CG stage,
the voltage gain can be easily obtained.

Composite Stage Example 2
• This example shows that by probing different nodes in a circuit,
different output signals can be obtained.
• Vout1 is a result of M1 acting as a source follower, whereas Vout2
is a result of M1 acting as a CS stage with degeneration.

Short-Circuit Transconductance
• The short-circuit transconductance is a measure of the
strength of a circuit in converting an input voltage signal into
an output current signal:
• The voltage gain of a linear circuit is
(Rout is the output resistance of the circuit)

MOS Current Mirror
• The motivation behind a current mirror is to duplicate a
(scaled version of the) “golden current” to other locations.

MOS Current Mirror – NOT!
• This is not a current mirror, because the relationship between
VX and IREF is not clearly defined.
• The only way to clearly define VX with IREF is to use a diode-
connected MOS since it provides square-law I-V relationship.
21. EE105 Fall 2007 Lecture 20, Slide 21 Prof. Liu, UC Berkeley
Example: Current Scaling
• MOS current mirrors can be used to scale IREF up or down
– I1 = 0.2mA; I2 = 0.5mA
