7.15 An NMOS differential pair is biased by a current source I = 0.2 mA having an output resistance RSS = 100 kohm. The amplifier has drain resistances RD = 10kohm, using transistors with kn'W/L = 3 mA/V^2, and ro that is large. (a) If the output is taken single-endedly, find |Ad|, |Acm|, and CMRR. (b) If the output is taken differentially and there is a 1% mismatch between the drain resistances, find |Ad|, |Acm|, and CMRR.
