单极放大器概述
Applications and General Considerations
Applications of Amplifier:
- to drive a load
- to overcome the noise of a subsequent stage
- to provide logical levels to a digital circuit
- to play a role in feedback systems (Chapter 8)

For each amplifier above, we will
- analyze the MOS’s stage using the equation we learn at chapter 1
- introduce the small-signal model
- discuss how to increase the gain
An ideal amplifier: output is a linear replica of the input:
Any amplifier is a compomise (trade-off) between “analog design octagon”:
