Diode-connected BJT Lecture 17-1 Current Mirrors • Current sources are created by mirroring currents • Example: with infinite β , Io = IREF Diff Amp VCC IREF Io Lecture 17-2 Current Mirrors • Example: with finite β Diff Amp VCC IREF Io • What is the other reason for IREF ¦ Io? Lecture 17-3 Output Resistance of Current Source, R • What is the small signal output resistance of this current source, and why do we care? Diff Amp VCC IREF Io Lecture 17-4 Simple IREF Model • Select R to establish the required reference current Diff Amp VCC R IREF Io Lecture 17-5 Widlar current source • For a given Vcc, you need large resistor R values to obtain small current! • Lagre resistors are expensive, Widlar current source uses smaller resistor in emitter to reduce achive the same current? IoRE =VBE1- VBE2 VCC R IREF Io VBE1=VT ln(IREF/Is) VBE2=VT ln(Io/Is) Q1 Q2 VBE1- VBE2=VT ln(IREF/Io) RE IoRE =VT ln(IREF/Io) Lecture 17-6 Widlar current source vs. ordinary current mirror • Let us say we need Io = 10µA • Assume that for I - 1mA VBE = 0.7 VCC R IREF Io VCC R1 Q1 IREF Io Q2 Q1 Q2 RE IoRE =VT ln(IREF/Io) Lecture 17-7 Widlar current source - output resistance • If we neglect R || re1 , base of Q2 is on ac ground VCC vox IREF R Io + R Q1 Q2 RE r e1 v π - gm vπ rπ ro RE • Presence of RE is increases output resistance to (1+gm RE||rπ)ro. (Read Sec. 6.4 in the textbook!) Lecture 17-8 Current Steering • With an IREF established, steer and/or scale the reference value V+ Io R IREF Io 2Io Lecture 17-9 Reading IC circuit schematics • Find a path between + power supply and - power supply which sets the reference current (very often there is only one even in a large circuit): Only VBE and resistors are in this path. • Type of transistor will tell you the expected direction of current: npn - current sink, pnp - current source. • Identify current mirror configurations (Widlar, Wilson, etc.) and respective emitter areas. • Proceed from the reference current branch an calculate subsequent currents independently V+ V+ V+ V+ R1 R IREF R2 V+ Lecture 17-10 Beta Dependence • When “steered” to several points, the Io dependence on β can be a problem VCC IREF VCC Io Lecture 17-11 Simple Opamp Example • First stage is used to reject common mode voltages • The 2nd diff amp and level shifting stage provide the gain • The input diff amp also provides the large input resistance • Why is Q6 designed to be 4x larger than Q3? + R4 2300Ω VCC 15V R3 3E3Ω R1 20E3Ω + R2 20E3Ω VEE -15V Q7 Q4 Q2 Q1 + Q5 VI SIN Q8 R7 28600Ω Q9 Q3 4x Q6 R5 157E2Ω R6 3E3Ω Lecture 17-12 Differential Amplifiers: Active Loads • IC resistors are impractical • Active loads provide current-source-like loads, hence large small signal gains VCC VCC vout + vd _ I VEE Lecture 17-13 Differential Amplifiers: Active Loads • The output in this example is single-sided, but behaves sort of differentially • The output is a current, proportional to vd --- transconductance amplifier VCC VCC iout vout _ 1 + 2 vd + iout Gm vd _ I VEE • Assuming infinite β , what is the output current when vd = 0 ? Lecture 17-14 Common Mode Gain • If all of the parameter values are exactly matched to one another, and β =100, will there be any common mode gain? VCC VCC iout vout I VEE • Will there be any dc offset?
