EE124 Lecture 10 CS Degeneration Common Gate Source Follower Feb 26 Spring 2020

The document summarizes an electronics lecture that covered several amplifier circuits. It discusses common-gate and common-source amplifiers, including their small-signal models and characteristics like input impedance, output impedance, and gain. It also covers source degeneration in common-source amplifiers and combining DC and AC analyses. The lecture announced upcoming assignments and exams.

Common-Gate Topology Steps:

1. Which is the input?


Which is the Output?
Why it is called common gate?

2. Questions to ask yourself:


How does it work? (Large Signal)

3. Small Signal Analysis
