A MOS differential amplifier utilizing a simple current sour
A MOS differential amplifier utilizing a simple current source to provide the bias current I is found to have a CMRR of 60 dB. If it is required to raise the CMRR to 100 dB by adding a cascode transistor to the current source, what must the intrinsic gain A0 of the cascode transistor be? If the cascode transistor is operated at Vov = 0.2 V, what must its VA be? If for the specific technology utilized V\'A= 10 V/um, specify the channel length L of the cascode transistor.
Solution
CMRR = Ad/Ac
Vo = Ad*Vd + Ac* Vc= 0.2
L = CMRR/Vo
= 4.5m
CMRR = 100 dB
its value = 105
