Ex 4.2: For the circuit shown in Figure 4.1, VDD = 3.3 V and RD = 10 kΩ. The transistor parameters are VTN = 0.4 V, kn′ = 100 μA/V2, W/L = 50, and λ = 0.025 V−1. Assume the transistor is biased such that IDQ = 0.25 mA. (a) Verify that the transistor is biased in the saturation region. (b) Determine the small-signal parameters gm and ro. (c) Determine the small-signal voltage gain. (Ans. (a) VGSQ = 0.716 V and VDSQ = 0.8 V so that VDS > VDS (sat); (b) gm = 1.58 mA/V, ro = 160 kΩ; (c) -14.9) Figure 4.1 NMOS common-source circuit with time-varying signal source in series with gate dc source
