Why differential amplifiers dominate modern analog ICs?
Differential amplifiers apply gain not to one input signal but to the difference between two input signals. This means that a differential amplifier naturally eliminates noise or interference that is present in both input signals. Differential amplification also suppresses common-mode signals—in other words, a DC offset that is present in both input signals will be removed, and the gain will be applied only to the signal of interest (assuming, of course, that the signal of interest is not present in both inputs). This is particularly advantageous in the context of IC design because it eliminates the need for bulky DC-blocking capacitors. The subtraction that occurs in a differential pair makes it easy to incorporate the circuit into a negative-feedback amplifier, and if you’ve read the Negative Feedback series, you know that negative feedback is about the best thing that could ever happen to an amplifier circuit.
How to Calculate Minimum Input Common-Mode Range of MOS Differential Amplifier?
Minimum Input Common-Mode Range of MOS Differential Amplifier calculator uses Common-Mode Range = Threshold Voltage+Effective Voltage+Voltage between Gate and Source-Load Voltage to calculate the Common-Mode Range, Minimum input common-mode range of MOS differential amplifier formula is for signal processing devices with differential inputs, such as op-amp, CMVR is range of common-mode signal for which amplifier's operation remains linear. Common-Mode Range is denoted by Vcmr symbol.
