Question: A balanced fully differential circuit displays only odd-order nonlinearity. Use SPICE to verify this fact for the op amp in the example in Section 12.6.1.

A balanced fully differential circuit displays only odd-order nonlinearity. Use SPICE to verify this fact for the op amp in the example in Section 12.6.1.

(a) Either use SPICE to find the distortion in the output waveform for a low-frequency differential sinusoidal input, or use SPICE to plot the dc transfer characteristic Vod versus Vid and verify that the characteristic is odd.

(b) Repeat (a) with a 1 percent mismatch between W1 and W2. Observe that even-order nonlinearity now exists.
