Output impedance

Transistor cascoding is mainly implemented to improve an amplifier's _.

Cascode configuration

Stacking two transistors in series, rather than cascading, forms a _.

Amplifying transistor

In a cascode amplifier, the lower/input transistor is called the _.

Cascode transistor

In a cascode amplifier, the upper transistor is called the _.

Common source

In a JFET cascode amplifier, the lower (amplifying) transistor is configured as _.

Higher gain

Since higher output impedance raises gain, cascoding results in _.
