Consider two transistors connected as shown in the circuit below. They have same VGS and VDS. The nominal threshold voltage Vt = 0.5 V a. What mode of operation the transistors are in? b. The two transistors are matched and have the same Vt. However, their W/L ratios has a maximum possible mismatch of 2%, i. e. because of variation in fabrication. What is the maximum resulting mismatch in their drain currents? c. Consider a situation where fabrication mismatch causes a maximum possible mismatch in their threshold voltages of 20 mV and no other mismatch. What is the maximum resulting mismatch in their drain currents?

[15 pts] Consider two transistors connected as shown in the circuit below. They have same $V_{G S}$ and $V_{D S}$ . The nominal threshold voltage $V_{t} = 0.5 V$ a. What mode of operation the transistors are in? b. The two transistors are matched and have the same $V_{t}$ . However, their $W / L$ ratios has a maximum possible mismatch of $2 %$ , i.e. because of variation in fabrication. What is the maximum resulting mismatch in their drain currents? c. Consider a situation where fabrication mismatch causes a maximum possible mismatch in their threshold voltages of $20 m V$ and no other mismatch. What is the maximum resulting mismatch in their drain currents?
