Calculations
iC = gm vB
vC = RC gm vB
vC1 = RC1 gm +VS / 2
vC2 = RC2 gm -VS / 2
vC1 - vC2 = RC gm VS
What about the bias current? RE sets the bias at Ie = (-0.6V - VDD) / RE = (-0.6 V - (-15 V)) /
7.2 k = 2 mA which divides equally between Q1 and Q2 giving
Ic1 = Ic2 Ie / 2 1 mA
Finally, we easily calculate gm = 1 mA / 25 mV = 0.04 A/V. The single-ended gain becomes
