This chap should get a nobel prize for for sharing knowledge and making such a big impact on peoples lives. He is empowering people in the world of electronics in a way that very very few can. I have never come across a lecturer like him either online or in the real world. Thank you professor.
This time don't leave us begging for more. We have waited for a long time for these lectures. You are amazing. You make it look all easy and interesting unlike others. Thanks for your affection towards us
This is why we need true expert to teach this subject. I never knew the true reason till now. Everyone else gave unnecessarily complex and confusing reasons. Thanks Prof. Razavi!
These are by far an away some of the best lectures I've attended. Very rarely has a professor been able to keep me interested in the content while also being so thorough. Thanks!
01:25 - Intro and review of Electronics I and II 10:28 - Examples of Circuits of Interest 14:45 - Current Source with MOSFETs 24:07 - Improving Current Sources with Degeneration 33:20 - We need a device that can degenerate but does not follow Ohm's Law - That offers same or higher incremental resistance - That will serve as an negative Current-Voltage feedback element 39:20 - Fundamental Property of Cascode 42:40 - Double-Cascode 45:00 - What happens when the widths of transistors in a cascode are doubled?
Brilliant teaching. This is a refresher for me but I wish you were my professor while I was pursuing my MSEE degree and took a class on Analog IC design at a university in the Chicago area. I love Dr. Razavi’s RF Microelectronics textbook.
really i have never seen any teacher explaining like prof. razavi but what i like to say is thanks million times prof. razavi i wish long and health life and request to continue helping hungry the students for your knowledge.
Dear Prof. Razavi, You are very different from many other lecturers on electronics, because you love what you teach.. And we are your devoted students, because we love what you teach.. We also love your style.. I beg on my knees: Please continue.. There are so much more in your mind to teach us..
I am in love from the first lecture itself, but I can not comment on every lecture because viewing ur lecture seems more important than my comment but I really feel very good to see people like u, who put there whole life efforts knowledge to share so effectively.. ur all-time student. :)
Thank you so much for making these videos. These videos are the best resouce for building a good understanding of transistor circuits I've been able to find on the internet.
sir i beg you please cover the video lectures on all the topics mentioned in your book example, oscillators, efficiency of amplifiers, etc.....🤧🤧😭😭😭you have no idea how much a life saver these lectures are. The only reason that I passed my semester is because of you.. i have no words to express my gratitude believe me 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Thankyou very much.
Thank you very much, Mr. Razavi, or should I say king of us all? I cannot sufficiently express how much I like your books and video lectures. You love electronics and it shows at every second of your programs.. Needless to say, we all hope for electronics-3.. Best regards from Turkey!!
God of electronics is back,i respected all the teachers but they should learn from sir how to teach and deal with the subject.. Thank you sir, it will helpful if you teach communications subjects in this manner.
@@ParminderKaur-zm4kw Because we want a better approach to "IDEAL" current source, which has wider operation region, open circuit in small signal analysis, and many other benefits.
Thank you Sir! You are amazing! And thank you Long Kong for posting these video lectures. We are miles away but i still find connections between us. I wish that Prof. Razavi give video lectures on Design of Analog CMOS ICs. It would be great! :)
M1 is an amplifier (common gate) and therefore (for low frequency operations) it should be operating in moderate/weak inversion to maximise its gm for a given current. M2 is your main mirror device which should be in strong inversion to improve random offset (i.e. mismatch). Both devices must be in saturation. To achieve the above, usually M1 has a large W/L ratio (and L can be very small). M2 has a large L since mismatch is inversly proportional to L (for a fixed current), so you can simply push M2 in strong inversion by setting the W to something small (technology dependent) and increasing the L to whatever size or speed limitations you may have. I am not sure why many books assume that the devices should be the same or even identical.
@@mohammedabdulhakabdullaabd1121 No it’s not; it’s a cascode device, by definition a common-gate configuration with input current at its source and fixed Vb at its gate.
I am lost. Assume M1 is the cascode device and M2 is the degenerating device, I can understand the output resistance is boosted to gm1 * r01 * r02. So far so good. But how could M2 help the narrower DS1 voltage range issue? To avoid M1 getting into the triode region, DS1 voltage needs to be narrower just like using a simple Rs resistance at M1 source... Correct? What's the advantage of M2 over Rs in this perspective?
I thought about this again.. if degenerating device is a NPN, the CE voltage can be selected at a low value,,, say, put it at the edge of saturation so CE voltage is small to minimize its impact on cascode device DS voltage. But if degenerating device is a NMOS, its DS cannot be too small. Its impact on cascode device DS voltage is unavoidable... What do I miss here?
im so addicted to the lectures that i was teaching my cat to bias a FET in saturation in my dream.

Thank you dear Prof. Razavi for your valuable efforts!
Also big thanks to you Dr. Kong for uploading the videos.
These lectures are priceless!
Thanks a lot Prof. Razavi for hearing out our requests and taking out your time for making this video lectures for free.
Boss is back in action.....thank you sir for the lectures
I read his book, fell asleep. I found his videos on UA-cam, now I can't sleep! Thank you , professor!
same here
Sir, you are an incredible Professor. I truly thank you from my heart.
Thanks for being alive in this century!!!!!

how is M1 a common gate if input signal is applied to the gate and sensed at the drain? to me it looks like a common source.
@@mohammedabdulhakabdullaabd1121 No it’s not; it’s a cascode device, by definition a common-gate configuration with input current at its source and fixed Vb at its gate.

mesmerizing, couldn't stop the video for sec

Thanks a lot sir for your benevolence.
Thank you, the great master Razavi.

Yes
Thank uu so muchhh razavi sirr... Much waited video lectures👌🙌🙏
Prof is back with same Outfit (same color shirts :p).
Phenomenal Lecture
Awesome ! So excited .... Keep it up sir.
the music is better than before!
Your teaching is excellent sir. But please do take care of the Noise!!
Razavi is the man.
Thank you so much sir for making electronic 2 lectures these videos are really helpful for me making concept better
pawan singh Are you preparing for GATE ECE too?
Yes i am preparing for gate 2020
Awesome! Let the learning continue.
Thank you very much sir, great lectures !
Excellent !! No word😊😊😊😊
Could you provide higher level courses covering Two and three stage op-amps, ADCs, DACs, PLLs..etc?
Glad to see Electronics 2!!!
A beautiful presentation.
what a simple genius
why does he always put such bangers at the start
You gave meaning to my live!
Thank You very much sir...for this wonderful lecture.
This dude is straight awesome bruh
Πάμε κάψιμο!!!
Thankful and Grateful to "Mr. Kong" for the upload and to "Mr. Razavi" for the lectures.
very good lecture, thanks!
Thank you very much was waiting for this long time
amazing
Finally, I like Analog.

When doubling W, the ro will be reduced because ro=1/kn*W/L*(VGS-Vth)^2, so our Rout will be reduced
