MOSFET device capacitances: Calculate the −3 dB bandwidth of the circuit shown below. Parameters: W1 = 10 μm, L1 = 1 μm, W2 = 2 μm, L2 = 10 μm, VIN = 0.9 V, VDD = 1.8 V. Assume μnCox = 150 μA/V2 and Vtt = 0.5 V. For each MOSFET, consider only the intrinsic gate capacitance (use the parameters on slide 43 of Chapter 2 of the course notes for calculations). Hints: First determine the region of operation of each transistor, i. e. saturation, triode, or cutoff. Use appropriate small-signal models for each transistor: we covered saturation in class, models for other regions can be found by reading sections 1.2 . 8 and 1.3 . 3 in the Carusone textbook.

For the following problem, neglect body effect, Cgd and ro, but consider Cgs and use long-channel equations in transistors. Assume L = 0.7 μm for both transistors. The other circuit component values are the following: Rb = 4 kΩ, Rd = 50 Ω, Lg = 10 nH, Ls = 0.5 nH, RS = 50 Ω. The frequency of operation is 2.4 GHz. Ci may be considered as a short circuit at the frequency of operation. Rb is high enough that can be considered as an open circuit for small signal. (a) Symbolically, calculate the input impedance Zi. (b) Calculate the required overdrive voltage in M2 to make the real part of Zi equal to 50 Ω. (c) Calculate W2 to make Zi = 50 Ω. (d) Calculate ID and W1 to make Iref = ID/10. (e) Calculate the DC component at v0. (f) Numerically calculate the small-signal gain, av = vo/vi. (g) Calculate vo if vs = 1 mV peak. (h) Symbolically, calculate the noise figure of this amplifier. (i) Calculate F in dB. CMOS process data: VDD = 1.8 V. For NMOS, Vthn = 0.4V, μn = 400 cm2/Vs, Cox = 9 fF/μm2 and γn = 1. The parameters for PMOS transistors are k′ = μpCox = 90 μA/V2, Vthp = −0.4V and γp = 0.8.

For an NMOS differential pair with a common-mode voltage VCM applied, as shown in Fig. 9.2, let VDD = VSS = 1.0 V, kn' = 0.4 mA/V^2, (W/L) 1,2 = 10, Vtn = 0.4 V, I = 0.16 mA, RD = 5kohm, and neglect channel-length modulation. (a) Find VOV and V GS for each transistor. (b) For V CM =0, find VS, ID1, ID2, VD1, VD2, and VO. (c) Repeat (b) for VCM = +0.4 V. (d) Repeat (b) for VCM = -0.1 V (e) What is the highest value of VCM for which Q1 and Q2 remain in saturation? (f) If current source I requires a minimum voltage of 0.2 V to operate properly, what is the lowest value allowed for VS and hence for VCM (g) What is the input common-mode range?
