*8.25 In a manner parallel to the one used for the MOS current mirror in Section 8.2.5, analyze the BJT mirror circuit in Fig. P8.25 to determine its small-signal input resistance Rin, short-circuit current gain Ais ≡ io/ii, and output resistance Ro. To do this, replace each of Q1 and Q2 with its hybrid-π model. Let Q1 and Q2 have the same β, but let the EBJ area of Q2 be m times that of Q1. Assuming that ro1 ≫ 1/gm1, show that
