LINEAR REGION (Low VDS):
Electrons (in light blue) are attracted to
the SiO2 – Si Interface. A conductive
channel is created between source and
drain. We have a Voltage Controlled
Resistor (VCR).
SATURATION REGION (High VDS):
When the drain voltage is high enough
the electrons near the drain are
insufficiently attracted by the gate, and
the channel is pinched off. We have a
Voltage Controlled Current Source
(VCCS).

CSS with Current Source load
To increase the gain, we can use the output resistance of a transistor.
T2 provides the DC current bias to T1, and has a high output
impedance. The bias current is determined by Vb.

This solution gives a much higher gain than the

since Vout_max = VDD – VDS2_sat and Vout_min = VDS1_sat.

N.B. The DC output level here is not well defined, we will need a

We have three resistances in parallel: 1/gm, 1/gmb and r0. This is true
also if the gate is connected to a fixed potential which is not VDD.

Common-Gate Stage (CGS)
In the Common-Source Stage the input signal is applied to the gate. We can also
apply it to the source, obtaining what is called a Common-Gate Stage (CGS)

resistance seen in the drain of T2.

R out _ CascS  r01  r02  gm2  gmb 2   r01r02  gm2  gmb 2   r01r02
T1
Compared to a Common-Source Stage, the output
impedance is “boosted” by a factor (gm2 + gmb2) r02.
The disadvantage of the cascode configuration is that the minimum
output voltage is now the sum of the saturation voltages of T1 and T2.
It must therefore be used with care in low voltage circuits.
ELEC 2005
Giovanni Anelli - CERN
26
CascS with current source load
To fully profit from the high output impedance of the cascode stage, it
seems natural to load it with a high impedance load, like a current source.

If r03 is not high enough, we can use the cascode

well defined, and that we will need a feedback loop.

Single-Ended vs Differential
A single-ended signal is defined as a signal measured with respect to a
fixed potential (usually, ground).
A differential signal is defined as a signal measured between two nodes
which have equal and opposite signal excursions. The “center” level in
differential signals is called the Common-Mode (CM) level.
The most important advantage of differential signals over single-ended
signals is the much higher immunity to “environmental” noise.
As an example, let’s suppose to have a disturbance on the power supply.

To have an exact replica of the reference current, we have to make the
transistor identical AND they must have the same VDS. When this is not
possible, choosing long devices reduces the effect of .
Precise current ratios can be obtained playing with the ratio between
the transistor widths (not the lengths!).

Current mirrors can also process a signal, and they can therefore be used
as active elements. A differential pair with an active current mirror is also
called a differential pair with active load. The current mirror here has also
the important role to make a differential to single-end conversion!

Let’s now calculate the small-signal behavior, neglecting the bulk effect for
simplicity. The circuit is NOT symmetric, and therefore we can not use the halfcircuit principle here. As a first approximation, we can consider the common
sources of the input transistors as a virtual ground. The small-signal gain G can
be seen as the product of the total transconductance of the stage and of the
output resistance.
