Define a cascode amplifier.
Think about how stacking components can impact performance.
What is the formula for voltage gain?
It involves small-signal parameters.
What does a cascode amplifier primarily enhance?
Recall the key advantages of this amplifier type.
True or False: An active load does not impact bandwidth.
Think about how different loads can interact with signal frequency.
If a cascode amplifier has a total capacitance of 200 pF and a voltage gain of -100, what is the resulting effect on bandwidth?
Apply your knowledge of how capacitance impacts frequency.
Analyze how doubling the active load resistance in a cascode amplifier would affect voltage gain and input capacitance.
Consider both ends of the amplifier's performance.
