31 Small-Signal Principle y Nonlinear function y=f(x) Y -point X x

32 Small-Signal Principle y Region around -Point y=f(x) Y -point X x

33 Small-Signal Principle y Region around -Point y=f(x) Y -point X x Relationship is nearly linear in a small enough region around -point Region of linearity is often quite large Linear relationship may be different for different -points

34 Small-Signal Principle y y=f(x) Region around -Point Y -point X x Relationship is nearly linear in a small enough region around -point Region of linearity is often quite large Linear relationship may be different for different -points

35 Small-Signal Principle y -point y ss y=f(x) Y x ss X x Device behaves linearly in neighborhood of -point Can be characterized in terms of a small-signal coordinate system

36 Small-Signal Principle y Linear Model at -point y=f(x) Y -point y=f(x) X INT y-y x-x f x x=x X y-y = ( ) f = x x x=x x-x

37 Small-Signal Principle y Linear Model at -point y=f(x) Y -point y=f(x) X INT y-y x-x f x x=x X y-y = ( ) f = x x x=x x-x

38 Small-Signal Principle Changing coordinate systems: y SS =y-y y-y ( x-x ) x=x x SS =x-x x f = f y = SS x x=x x SS

39 Small-Signal Principle Small-Signal Model: y SS f = x Linearized model for the nonlinear function y=f(x) Valid in the region of the -point Will show the small signal model is simply Taylor s series expansion at the -point truncated after first-order terms x=x x SS

40 Small-Signal Principle y -point y SS y=f(x) Observe: y x SS y-y f = x x=x ( x-x ) x x f y y x-x x = + x=x ( ) f y f x x-x x ( ) ( ) = + x=x Small-Signal Model: y SS f = x x=x x SS Mathematically, small signal model is simply Taylor s series expansion at the -point truncated after first-order terms

41 Small-Signal Principle Goal with small signal model is to predict performance of circuit or device in the vicinity of an operating point Operating point is often termed -point Will be extended to functions of two and three variables

43 Small signal analysis example By selecting appropriate value of V SS, M 1 will operate in the saturation region Assume M 1 operating in saturation region V IN Consider three points on the input waveform V M t V IN =V M sinωt V M is small -V M µc W 2L =V -IR ( ) 2 OX I = V -V -V D IN SS T V OUT DD D µc W 2L ( ) 2 OX V = V V -V -V R OUT DD IN SS T

44 Small signal analysis example By selecting appropriate value of V SS, M 1 will operate in the saturation region Assume M 1 operating in saturation region V IN =V M sinωt V M is small V OUT V =V -IR OUT DD D µc W 2L ( ) 2 OX I = V -V -V D IN SS T µc W 2L µcoxw = VDD M ω 2L µ C W 2L ( ) 2 OX V = V V -V -V R OUT DD IN SS T 2 ( V sin t [ V + V ]) R SS ( V V ) 2 OX I D = SS + T T

45 Small signal analysis example V IN =V M sinωt V M is small V V OUT OUT µcoxw = VDD M ω 2L = V DD µcoxw 2L 2 ( V sin t [ V + V ]) R [ V + V ] SS T SS T 2 VM sinω t 1- [ VSS VT ] + 2 R V V OUT OUT = V = V DD DD V Recall that is x is small ( 1+x) 2 1+2x OUT µcoxw 2L µcoxw 2L = V DD µcoxw 2L [ V + V ] SS µc W 2L T 2 1-2V 2 OX [ V + V ] R [ V + V ] SS T µc L W SS M sinω t [ V + V ] T 2 SS 2V M R sinω T [ V + V ] 2 OX [ V + V ] R [ V + V ] R V sinω t SS T SS T SS M T t R

46 Small signal analysis example V IN =V M sinωt V OUT = V DD µcoxw 2L µc L W 2 OX [ V + V ] R [ V + V ] R V sinω t SS T SS T M uiescent Output ss Voltage Gain A µcoxw = [ VSS VT ]R L v + Alternately, substituting from the expression for I D we obtain A v = 2I [ V + V ] SS D R T

47 Small signal analysis example V IN =V M sinωt A v = 2I [ V + V ] SS D R T Observe the small signal voltage gain is twice the uiescent voltage across R divided by V SS +V T This analysis which required linearization of a nonlinear output voltage is quite tedious. This approach becomes unwieldy for even slightly more complicated circuits A much easier approach based upon the development of small signal models will provide the same results, provide more insight into both analysis and design, and result in a dramatic reduction in computational requirements
