Dear All,
I am looking for a relationship (equation) that links the BW of a source follower with its bias current.
Can you help me please?
Thanks
 

source follower

from the very basic relationship of time and current; I=q/t , where I is the current q is the charge and t is the time it takes an electron to pass a certain place in a circuit... we know that the BW is a function of frequency which is the inverse of time so I conclude that Current is directly proportional to BW... for the equation, try to read the book of Boylestad...
 

source follower

In brief, the dominant pole, therefore the bandwidth, is given by

fp=1/(2pi)*gm/(CL+Cgs),
where gm is the transconductance
Cgs is the gate-source capacitance
CL is the load capacitance

Since gm is given by
gm=2*sqrt(k*W/L*Id)

we have got the relationship between BW and current.
