A differential amplifier that does not use a tail current source is shown in Fig. 12.55.

(a) Compute the low-frequency gains adm and acm. For all transistors, drain currents are 100 µA and |Vov| = 0.2 V. Also, VAn = 10 V, and |VAp| = 20 V.

(b) Compare these gains with the gains calculated in the first example in Section 12.4.1.
