RC Low Pass (Review) A pole: a root of the denomintor 1+sRC=0S=-RC

Laplace Transform/Fourier Transform p=1/(RC) (Fourier Transform) (Laplace Transform) -p Location of the zero in the left complex plane Complex s plane
4
Rules of thumb: (applicable to a pole) Magnitude: 1.20 dB drop after the cut-off frequency 2.3dB drop at the cut-off frequency Phase: 1.-45 deg at the cut-off frequency 2.0 degree at one decade prior to the cut-frequency 3.90 degrees one decade after the cut-off frequency
5
RC High Pass Filter (Review) A zero at DC. A pole from the denominator. 1+sRC=0S=-RC
6
Laplace Transform/Fourier Transform p=1/(RC) Zero at DC. (Fourier Transform) (Laplace Transform) -p Location of the zero in the left complex plane Complex s plane
7
Zero at the origin. Thus phase(f=0)=90 degrees. The high pass filter has a cut-off frequency of 100.

Transit Frequency Calculation
24
Understanding Transit Frequency Since f T depends on V GS -V T, f T depndes on g m /I D. f T depends on L.

g m /I D Principle
32
Use to gm/ID principle to find capacitance g m /I D (f T,I/W,g m /g ds ) f T =g m /c gg, c gg =c gs +c gb +c gd c gs /c gg is also g m /I D dependent.
33
Example Assume gm/ID=20, L=120 nm, VDS=0.6V, I=100uA. fT=22.76 GHz c gg =g m /f T =13.98 fF c gd /c gg =0.29c gd =4.1 fF c gs /c gg =0.75 C gs =10.5 fF

Noise
35
Noise is not deterministic The value of noise cannot be predicted at any time even if the past values are known.
36
Average Power of a Random Signal Observe the noise for a long time. Periodic voltage to a load resistance. Unit: V 2 rather than W. It is customary to eliminate RL from P AV.
37
Power Spectral Density PSD shows how much Power the signal carries at each frequency. S x (f 1 ) has unit of V 2 /Hz.
