Question 3 (25 marks) Figure 4 shows an amplifier with current mirror as active load. The MOSFETs have the following parameters: Vtn = −Vtp = 0.6 V, Kn′ = 200 μA/V2, Kp′ = 65 μA/V2, VA(NMOS) = 20 V, VA(PMOS) = −10 V, L = 0.4 μm and W = 10 μm. The supply voltage, VDD = 3 V and the reference current, IREF is 0.02 mA. Assume all the transistors are biased in the saturation region. Figure 4 (a) Identify the transistors forming the current mirror. [3 marks] (b) Calculate the output resistances of transistors Q1 and Q2.

Consider an NMOS transistor fabricated in a 0.18 - um process with L = 0.18 um and W = 2 um. The process technology is specified to have Cox = 8.6 fF/um^2, un = 450 cm^2/V?s, and Vtn = 0.5 V. a) Find VGS and VDS that result in the MOSFET operating at the edge of saturation with ID = 100 uA. b) If VGS is kept constant, find VDS that results in ID = 50 uA. c) To investigate the use of the MOSFET as a linear amplifier, let it be operating in saturation with VDS = 0.3 V. Find the change in iD resulting from vGS changing from 0.7 V by +0.01 V and by -0.01 V.

An NMOS transistor's iv curves are shown below with VT = 3 V and k = 10 mA/V2. In the active region, its drain current is ID = k(VGS − VT)2. a. If VGS = 6 V, then find ID. b. Now, assume ID = 50 mA. If VDD = 10 V and VDS = 5 V, find the drain resistor value, RD. c. Now, let VGS = 5 V, VT = 3 V, VDD = 10 V and RD = 125 ohms, draw a loadline on the iv curve above and indicate the operating point with a dot. Specify the operating point: ID = mA VDS = V
