Concept:

Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law

The algebraic sum of the voltages in a closed loop will be always zero.

- V4 + V1 + V2 + V3 = 0

V4 = V1 + V2 + V3

Calculation:

Assuming the transistors have matched the current through each of them will be divided equally.

I1 = I2 = I/2

The drain voltage is:

This structure is similar to that of the differential amplifier.

VD1 = VD2
