Do problem in two steps.DC voltages and currents (ignore small signals sources): set bias point of the MOSFET ... we had to do this to pick VGSalreadySubstitute the small-signal model of the MOSFET and the small-signal models of the other circuit elements …This constitutes small-signal analysis6An MOS AmplifierDSIGSVsvDRDDVGS GS svVv=+ovInput signalOutput signalSupply “Rail”47Small-Signal AnalysisStep 1.
