Which of these has an output which follows input?(a) CS amplifier with a bypass capacitor(b) CD amplifier(c) CG amplifier(d) CS amplifier without a bypass capacitorThis question was posed to me in homework.This interesting question is from JFET Amplifier in section FET Amplifiers of Analog Circuits

Answer»

Right option is (b) CD amplifier

Explanation: For a CD amplifier, the gain AV = gm(RS||rds)/1+gm(RS||rds)

But since gm(RS||rds)>>1, gain AV≈1, that is, it acts as a voltage FOLLOWER. It is also CALLED a SOURCE follower.
