Low output resistance is desirable and as long as load resistance is muchlarger than output resistance , it is expected that it won’t matter.
G-NumberB. Mazhari, IITK7
However, this is true only from a small-signal point of view
Example
1oR
Si l d i t h l th t t i t d ’t t
G-NumberB. Mazhari, IITK8
Since load resistors are much larger than output resistance, we don’t expectany difference in the two outputs
100mV
G-NumberB. Mazhari, IITK9
The difference between the twocircuits is due to different loadcurrents. In the first case the opamp is
3V
p pnot able to supply 30mA because itsoutput current is limited to 25mA only.In the second case the demand is only15mA. This highlights the importanceof output drive current.

It is not just the output resistance but output current drive capability which isalso important. One can have very low output resistance but one may not beable to drive very low output loads because of current limitations.

It is interesting that even though vin is pureIt is interesting that even though vin is puresinusoid, vgs is distorted in such a way thattransistor distorts it an opposite manner to giverise to drain current which is distortion free.
