A BJT cascode amplifier with a cascode active load is shown in Figure P10.89. Assume transistor parameters of \(\beta=120\) and \(V_{A}=80 \mathrm{~V}\). The \(V_{B B}\) voltage is such that all transistors are biased in the active region. Determine the small-signal voltage gain \(A_{v}=v_{o} / v_{i}\).
