MOS stages summary table
BJT stages summary table
·
Before using the summary tables it’s extremely important to derive all
the expressions by yourself in order to understand how to use it, where they
come from and their limitations. Those tables can be both a very powerful and
time saving tool at skilled hands and very misleading when used on “autopilot”.
