a) Analytically (compute) the region of operation of M1 and M2. In addition, approximately what is the DC value of VOUT (8 points).
Consider the source degenerated folded cascode amplifier shown in the figure. Determine the short-circuit transconductance (Gm), the output resistance (Rout ) and, voltage gain (AV) of the complete amplifier. Assume λ ≠ 0 for all transistors.
