6.3. Precision Formulation of the Low-Frequency Gain and Characteristic Frequencies

In Unit 8, the gain of a common-source stage with source resistor, which includes the effect of the output resistance, is shown to be [(8.36)]

This is designated here as avolo to emphasize that it is the constant low-frequency asymptotic gain. If the source-branch impedance is substituted for RS, this becomes

Equation 6.10

where fz is (6.5). This can be rearranged in the form of (6.4), which is

Equation 6.11

where the new pole frequency is

Equation ...
