What is the input impedance for the following circuit?(a) ro(b) 1/gm(c) Rd || ro(d) InfiniteThis question was posed to me by my school principal while I was bunking the class.My doubt stems from MOSFET Amplifier with CG Configuration in section FET Amplifiers of Analog Circuits |

Answer» RIGHT ANSWER is (b) 1/gm The EXPLANATION: The input to the CG stage is placed at the source of M1. The impedance looking into the node of M1 is SIMPLY 1/gm. Hence, the input impedance is 1/gm. Rd || ro is the output impedance if CHANNEL length modulation is present. |
