For the circuit below, perform the following calculations: (i) Find I1 when VIN = 1.2 V and R1 = 2 kohm. (ii) If W/L of the transistor is changed to W/L = 80/1, compute the new value of overdrive voltage VOV such the current I1 remains the same as in part (i). (iii) Find the maximum value of R1 which ensures that the transistor remains in saturation. (iv) Determine the minimum value of supply voltage VDD to bias the transistor in saturation.

An NMOS transistor fabricated in a process for which the process transconductance parameter is 400 uA/V^2 has its gate and drain connected together. The resulting two-terminal device is fed with a current source I as shown in Fig. 1. With I = 40 uA, the voltage across the device is measured to be 0.6 V. When I is increased to 90 uA, the voltage increases to 0.7 V. Find Vt and (W/L) of the transistor. Ignore channel-length modulation.

For the circuit shown in Figure 2, VDD = 5 V, and transistors M1 and M2 have properties µnCox = 200µA/V2, (W/L) = 10, Vt0 = 0.7 V, and λ = 0. You may neglect the body effect below, unless you are specifically asked to consider it. Figure 2. Circuit for Problem 2. a) Draw the circuit above, and label the drain, gate, source, and bulk nodes for both transistors, using labels VD1, VG1, VS1, and VB1 for the drain, gate, source, and bulk nodes of device M1, respectively, and similarly for M2. In total, there should be 8 labels in your schematic. For this part, assume the transistors are in saturation. b) Determine the valid input range for the circuit under consideration; that is, determine the range on the input voltage Vin such that transistors M1 and M2 are operating in the saturation region. Note that, in your analysis, you are not constrained to Vin values between 0 V and VDD, inclusive; e.g., if Vin = 100 V keeps both of the transistors in saturation, then Vin = 100 V should be included in your range of valid input voltages. Your answer to this part should take the form Vin,low ≤ Vin ≤ Vin,high ; hopefully, it is obvious that you are being asked to provide numerical answers for the lower- and upper-bounds Vin,low and Vin,high , respectively. c) For the valid input range that you determined in part (b), determine the corresponding output voltage range; that is, determine Vout,low ≤ Vout ≤ Vout,high when the input is constrained to Vin,low ≤ Vin ≤ Vin,high. . As before, you should report numerical values for the lower- and upper-bounds Vout,low and Vout,high, , respectively. d) Determine the "on voltage" VON2 (or, as in the Sedra/Smith textbook, the "overdrive voltage") and drain current ID2 of transistor M2 over the range of valid input voltages. Also, determine the drain current ID1 of M1 over the valid input range. e) If you were to consider it, would any of the transistors in the circuit above be affected by the body effect? If "yes," then list the device (or, devices, as the case may be). Qualitatively speaking, how would your answers to parts (b) and (c) change if you were to take the body effect into account? Explain your reasoning.
