  • Abstract
    The performance of various differential amplifier stages is studied using the efficient analysis program based upon the methods of Brodersen and Director (1974). Offset voltage, offset current, and common-mode rejection ratio are all characterized in terms of imbalances in the parameters of the transport model of the transistor. The utility of the program as a design aid is demonstrated through the evaluation of a high-performance differential amplifier stage.
