Find A0 for an NMOS transistor fabricated in a CMOS process for which kn' = 400 uA/V2 and VA' = 6 V/um. The transistor has a 0.5-um channel length and is operated with an overdrive voltage of 0.15 V. What must W be for the NMOS transistor to operate at ID = 100 uA? Also, find the values of gm and ro.

A 0.13 μm CMOS fabrication process is specified to have μnCox = 511 μA/V2, μpCox = 128 μA/V2, Vtn = −Vtp = 0.4 V, VAn′ = 5 V/μm, and |VAp′| = 6 V/μm are the Early voltages (connected to channel length modulation, rO = VA/ID). Consider an n-channel device and a p-channel device fabricated in this process with equal channel lengths L = 0.26 μm and with equal widths W = 2.6 μm. (a) If both the NMOS and PMOS transistors specified above are operated at |VOV| = 0.2 V, find the current ID, the voltage VGS, the transconductance gm, and the output resistance ro of each device. Also specify the range of the voltage across the device for operation in the saturation mode to be obtained. (b) If while keeping |Vov| and L unchanged the PMOS device is to have an equal transconductance to that of the NMOS transistor, what device parameter must be changed and to what value? Also, find the new values of ID and ro of the modified PMOS transistor.

The NMOS transistor below has Vt = 0.6 V, and VA = 5 V which means channel effect is considered. The dc voltage at the source is measured as −0.8 V. Assume all three capacitors to be ideal (infinite large). Here RD = 9 kohms and RG = 20 Mohms (a) What is the dc voltage at the drain terminal? (b) What is the overdrive voltage at which the transistor is operating? (c) What is the region in which the MOSFET is operating? (d) Find the values of gm and ro. (e) Now assume Y is connected to ground and a small signal vx is at X, find the input resistance Rin and overall voltage gain vx/vz. Please round overall voltage gain Gv to the nearest two decimal places.
