Figure 3-5 is redrawn and shown in Figure 5-5. The two current sources are shown for illustration only and are not independent stimuli. They represent the differential small signal current due to input shunt voltage, Vdiff. The relationship can be rewritten as:
Comparing with Figure 5-2, the only difference in Figure 5-5 is that current now acts as differential input instead of voltage. Similar to voltage feedback, the input to the difference amplifier is an internal node of the CSA. Vbias is the common-mode voltage of the difference amplifier. Since knowledge of its value is not essential for an end user, it may not be listed in product data sheets.
It can be derived that the differential term of the output error equation is:
Rewriting the output error equation for two stage CSA, with Vbias being the common-mode voltage:
