Amplfer What s an amplfer? An essental crcut blck fr analg sgnal prcessng An amplfer generally s a nn-lnear crcut blck. ( t ) ( t) A1 ( t) 2 n A1 ( t ) A 2 ( t ) A n ( t ) What we generally want as an amplfer s a lnear amplfcatn. If the nput sgnal (t) s small enugh, we hae Here, A 1 s the amplfer small sgnal gan. All the hgh rder terms are neglgble due t small (t). Mst analg sgnal that needs amplfcatn can be categrzed as small sgnal and thus a generally nn-lnear amplfer can be lcally (arund the bas pnt) lnearzed t characterze ts perfrmance. ecall: MOSFET small-sgnal equalent crcut Desgn f Analg Integrated Crcuts Fall 2012, Dr. Guxng Wang 4
