6.1.5 - Common-Mode Gain (A_cm) Measurement

Learning

Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Define Common-Mode Gain (A_cm).

💡 Hint: Think about what happens when the same voltage goes to both inputs.

Question 2

Easy

What does a low A_cm indicate in an amplifier?

💡 Hint: Remember, less output from common signals is more desired!
