Rules for Breaking the Feedback Network The third step is carried out by “duplicating” the feedback network at both the input and the output of the overall system. Illustrated in Fig. 12.50, the idea is to “load” both the input and the output of the forward amplifier by proper

copies of the feedback network. The copy tied to the output is called the “sense duplicate” and that connected to the input, the “return duplicate.” We must also decide what to do with the output port of the former and the input port of the latter, i.e., whether to short or open these ports. This is accomplished through the use of the “termination” rules depicted in Fig. 12.51. For example, for

voltage-voltage feedback [Fig. 12.51(a)], the output port of the sense replica is left open while the input of the return duplicate is shorted. Similarly, for voltage-current feedback [Fig. 12.51(b)], both the output port of the sense duplicate and the input port of the return duplicate are shorted.
The formal proof of these concepts is given in [1] but it is helpful to remember these rules based on the following intuitive (but not quite rigorous) observations. In an ideal situation, a feedback network sensing an output voltage is driven by a zero impedance, namely, the output impedance of the forward amplifier. Thus, the input port of the return duplicate is shorted. Moreover, a feedback network returning a voltage to the input ideally sees an infinite impedance, namely, the input impedance of the forward amplifier. Thus, the output port of the sense duplicate is left open. Similar observations apply to the other three cases.
Calculation of Feedback Factor The fifth step entails the calculation of the feedback factor, a task requiring the rules illustrated in Fig. 12.52. Depending on the type of feedback, the output port of the feedback network is shorted or opened, and the ratio of the output current or

voltage to the input is defined as the feedback factor. For example, in a voltage-voltage feedback topology, the output port of the feedback network is open [Fig. 12.52(a)] and K = V2=V1.
The proof of these rules is provided in [1], but an intuitive view can also be developed. First, the stimulus (voltage or current) applied to the input of the feedback network is of the same type as the quantity sensed at the output of the forward amplifier. Second, the output port of the feedback network is opened (shorted) if the returned quantity is a voltage (current)—just as in the case of the sense duplicates in Fig. 12.51. Of course, if the output port of the feedback network is left open, the quantity of interest is a voltage, V2. Similarly, if the port is shorted, the quantity of interest is a current, I2.
In order to reinforce the above principles, we reconsider the examples studied thus far in this chapter and determine the closed-loop parameters if I/O impedance effects are not negligible.

Analyze the amplifier depicted in Fig. 12.53(a) if R1 + R2 is not much less than RD.

Solution
We identify the forward system as M1 and RD, and the feedback network as R1 and R2. We construct the open-loop circuit according to Fig. 12.51(a), as shown in Fig. 12.53(b). Note that the feedback network appears twice. The sense duplicate output port is left open and the input port of the return duplicate is shorted. The open-loop parameters of this topology were computed in Example 12.25.
To determine the feedback factor, we follow the rule in Fig. 12.52(a) to form the circuit shown

Solution
This circuit employs current-voltage feedback and must be opened according to the rules shown in Figs. 12.51(d) and 12.52(d). The forward amplifier is formed by M1 and M3-M6, and the feedback network consists of RM . Depicted in Fig. 12.52(d), the open-loop circuit contains two instances of the feedback network, with the output port of the sense duplicate and the input port of the return duplicate left open. The open-loop gain Gm = Iout=Vin = (VX =Vin)(Iout=VX ), and

To calculate Iout=VX , we note that the current produced by M1 is divided between rO1 and
RL + RM :
rO1 |
(12.145) |
Iout = ,rO1 + RL + RM gm1VX ; |
where the negative sign arises because Iout flows out of the transistor. The open-loop gain is therefore equal to
Gm = gm3(rO3jjrO5)gm1rO1 : |
(12.146) |

The output impedance is measured by replacing RL with a test voltage source and measuring the small-signal current [Fig. 12.57(c)]. The top and bottom terminals of VX respectively see an

Solution
The forward amplifier consisting of M1, RD, and M2 senses a voltage and delivers a current to the load, and resistor RM plays the role of the feedback network. In a manner similar to Example 12.30, we open the loop as shown in Fig. 12.58(b), where Gm = Iout=Vin =

Solution
As a current-current feedback topology, the amplifier must be analyzed according to the rules illustrated in Figs. 12.51(c) and 12.52(c). The forward system consists of M1, RD, and M2, and the feedback network includes RM and RF . The loop is opened as depicted in Fig. 12.59(b), where the output port of the sense duplicate is shorted because the feedback network returns a current to the input. Given by (VX =Iin)(Iout=VX ), the open-loop gain is computed as

where the two fractions account for the division of Iin between RF + RM and M1, and the division of ID2 between rO2 and RL + RM jjRF .
The open-loop I/O impedances are expressed as |

with the latter obtained in a manner similar to that depicted in Fig. 12.57(c).
