Term: Differential Mode
Definition: A mode of operation in which two input signals are applied differentially, allowing the amplifier to amplify the difference between them.
Term: Common Mode
Definition: A mode of operation where identical signals are applied to both inputs of the amplifier, which should ideally not produce any output.
Term: Input Common Mode Range
Definition: The range of input voltages within which the differential amplifier can function correctly without distortion.
Term: Output Signal Swing
Definition: The maximum peak-to-peak output voltage that the differential amplifier can provide without clipping.
Term: Small Signal Equivalent Circuit
Definition: A simplified model of the differential amplifier that neglects DC components and focuses on the AC response to small perturbations.
