Homework Statement
For the differential amplifier circuit given above, for all transistors except Q1 and Q2 we have:
β=100, VA=80 V, RC =20 k, VT=0.026 (Thermal voltage), VBE(on)=0.7 V
a-Determine the collector currents IC1, IC2, IC3 and IC6
b-Calculate the Differential mode voltage gain Vo2/Vd.
c-What is the output resistance of the three transistor current source that is biasing the differential pair? Find the numerical value. Does this effect the common mode voltage gain? Explain briefly.
d-calculate the overall Gain
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
So the first thing I did was find I1 = V-Vbe-V(-)/R1 = 1 mA and Ic3=I1=1 mA then Ic1=Ic2=Ic3/2=0.5 mA and I have V02=V-Ic2(Rc) = 15-0.5(2) = 5 Volts then Ic6 = 15-5-.7/6 =1.55 mA. Next I found differntial mode gain rpi1= Vtβ/Ic = 0.026*100/0.5 = 5.2 kΩ and Rib6= rpi6+(1+β)Re = ?? rpi6= 100*0.026/1.55 = 1.67 mA so Rib6=1.67+(101)(4.3) = 435.97 and gain is β(R||Rib6)/2(rpi1+Rb) = 132.8. For part c Ro= Va/Ic3 = 80/1 = 80 kΩ and yes because if Ro changes so does Av when Av=something/(something)*(Ro). Calculate the overall gain well I would first need to find A2 and A3 and then plug into the formula Ad=Ad1*A2*A3 = ?? However I am unsure of how to proceed what should I do now
