Design of CS Amplifier

This document summarizes the design of a common source amplifier with a current mirror load. It specifies the design parameters including a gain of 20-30, transconductance of 200uS, output swing of 300mVpp centered at 500mV, and minimum power at 1V supply. The design flow involves determining the size of each device, bias current, and verifying gain, bandwidth and output swing through simulation. Key steps include selecting lengths and widths of NMOS and PMOS transistors based on specifications, analyzing equations for transconductance and gain, and selecting lengths to achieve the required output impedance and gain.
