Common Gate Amplifier is an
Impedance Transformer
Rout = ?
Rin = ?
Using T-model
If we don't consider ro :
To find Rout
ix = 0 since G is grounded
we have to include ro
vx
Rout = =∞
ix

Rout = ?
Rin = ?
KVL:
vx = (ix − gm vgs )ro + ix Rs
vgs = 0 − vs = −ix Rs
vx = (ix + gmix Rs )ro + ix Rs
vx
Rout = = ro + Rs + gm ro Rs
ix
= ro + (1+ gm ro )Rs ≈ ro + (gm ro )Rs

Cascode Amplifier with Simple
Active Load
Av = −gm1 (Ro || RL )
Ro ≈ (gm2 ro2 )ro1
RL = ro3 << Ro
Av = −gm1ro3
Similar gain as CS amplifier.
No gain boosting.

Useful Transistor Pairings
CC + CE CD + CS CD + CE
• High input resistance • Main benefit is wider in BiCMOS technology
• Much wider bandwidth bandwidth than single (BJT+CMOS)
than single CE CE amplifier • Similar to MOS version
