8.10. Comparison of Numerical Gain Results
Gain calculations were made using kn = 1000 μA/V2, λn = 0.05 V–1, RD = 150 kΩ, Rbias = 100kΩ, ηn = 0.15, ID = 50 μA, and VDS = 5 V. The values are given in Table 8.1. For the comparison, gm was calculated with the precision form [(4.5)] (λn ≠ 0) for all cases. Possibly a more valid consistency (hand calculation versus precision calculation) would be achieved with the use of the approximate form for gm up to λn ≠ 0. This would reduce some of the difference in the results. For example, for the first case, av1 = –av2 = –33.5, with the approximate form for gm (λn ≠ 0).
