The cascode amplifier has the potential of providing high gain and high bandwidth simultaneously. However, the design is not as intuitive as one might at first think. In this paper, we present a detailed analysis of the single cascode amplifiers. The relationship between gain and bandwidth is important. When used to achieve maximum bandwidth the voltage gain of the common-source stage is close to unity. However, when the cascode is designed to obtain a high voltage gain, then the gain-bandwidth trade-off, typical in the common source amplifier, reappears. This analysis is used to provide the basis for practical cascode amplifier design.

In most work contexts, several performance goals coexist, and conflicts between them and trade-offs can occur. Our paper is the first to contrast a dual goal for speed and accuracy with a single goal for speed on the same task. The Sternberg paradigm (Experiment 1, n = 57) and the d2 test (Experiment 2, n = 19) were used as performance tasks. Speed measures and errors revealed in both experiments that dual as well as single goals increase performance by enhancing memory scanning. However, the single speed goal triggered a speed-accuracy trade-off, favoring speed over accuracy, whereas this was not the case with the dual goal. In difficult trials, dual goals slowed down scanning processes again so that errors could be prevented. This new finding is particularly relevant for security domains, where both aspects have to be managed simultaneously.
