6 Differential and Common Mode Sinals -V d / V d / V c Consider positive and neative input terminal sinals V i+ and V i - Define differential sinal as: Define common mode sinal as: V id = V + in V in V ic =(V + in + V We can create arbitrary V i+ and V i- sinals from differential and common mode components: in )/ V + in = V ic + 1 V id V in = V ic 1 V id This also applies to differential output sinals: V + o = V oc + 1 V od V o = V oc 1 V od 6

8 First Steps in Small Sinal Modelin I bias1 V in- V in- M 3 M 4 R thd4 = r o4 Small sinal analysis assumes linearity - Impact of M 4 on amplifier is to simply present its drain impedance to the diff pair transistors ( and M ) - Impact of and V in- can be evaluated separately and then added (i.e., superposition) By symmetry, we need only determine impact of Calculation of V in- impact directly follows 8

10 Method of Differential Amplifier Analysis V in- V id -V id r o4 V ic r o4 Partition input sinals into common-mode and differential components By superposition, we can add the results to determine the overall impact of the input sinals 10

11 Differential Analysis V id -V id i s1 = i s i R = 0 R 1 R V id -V id R 1 R V id -V id i s1 i s i R r o4 Key observations - Inputs are equal in manitude but opposite in sin to each other - By linearity and symmetry, i s1 must equal -i s This implies i R is zero, so that voltae drop across r o4 is zero The sources of and M are therefore at incremental round and decoupled from each other! Analysis can now be done on identical half-circuits What is the differential DC ain? 11

12 Common Mode Analysis i s1 = i s i R = i s1 = i s V ic V ic V ic V ic V ic V ic i s1 ir i s i s1 i diff = 0 i s r o4 r o4 r o4 r o4 r o4 Key observations - Inputs are equal to each other - By linearity and symmetry, i s1 must equal i s This implies i R = i s1 = i s - We can view r o4 as two parallel resistors that have equal current runnin throuh them Analysis can also be done on two identical half-circuits What is the common mode DC ain? 1

13 Useful Metric for Differential Amplifiers: CMRR V input V noise V id =V si V od Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) - Define: a vd : differential ain, a vc : common mode ain CMRR = µ avd a vc - CMRR corresponds to ratio of differential to common mode ain and is related to received sinal-to-noise ratio V od = a vd V si + a vc V noise Sinal µ µ Noise = avd Vsi =CMRR a vc V noise µ Vsi V noise 13

14 Another Useful Metric for Differential Amplifiers: PSRR V sup + V input V noise V id =V si V od Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR) - a vd : differential ain - a vp+ : positive power supply ain - a vp- : neative power supply ain PSRR + = µ avd a vp+ PSRR = V sup - µ avd a vp 14

15 Example: Calculate CMRR and PSRR V in- V id -V id r o4 V ic r o4 First determine a vd, a vc, a vp+, and a vp- Then calculate CMRR and PSRR - Note that CMRR and PSRR are often expressed in db Example: CMRR = 0lo(a vd /a vc ) 15
