Figure (a) shows a MOSFET cascode amplifying stage with a cascode active load. The small signal equivalent circuit is shown in figure (b) where Ro3 is the effective resistance looking into the drain of M3.
In cascode current mirror,
$R_{o3}=r_{03}+r_{04}(1+g_mr_{03})$
We can assume all transistors are matched so that the …
