Plot the input/output characteristic of the XOR PD for two cases. To receive full credit, you must show the minimum and maximum values on the graphs. Note that Xout is the average output of the PD. (a) The circuit has a single-ended output that swings between 0 and VDD. (b) The circuit has a differential output that swings between −V0 and +V0. Use a graph similar to the one depicted below for both parts.

At the end of this assignment is a set of characteristic curves for an n-channel JFET. Print out the curves, and look at the one labeled "nJFET #1." The curves are label with the gate-source voltage (VGS) values. (a) Estimate the IDSS from the curve. (b) Estimate the gate-source threshold voltage VT. (c) Plot the load line on the graph when the nJFET is used in this circuit. (d) We want to set the quiescent point to be near the middle of the full possible output voltage range (about halfway between 0V and VDD = 15V). Mark the quiescent point with "Q" on the load line. (e) What is the transconductance near the quiescent point? (f) What should the DC voltage be set to in order to properly bias the transistor? (Assume that the DC voltage can be adjusted to any positive or negative value, and that the AC amplitude is zero for now). (g) The AC voltage now has an amplitude of 0. 5V (in other words, VG oscillates ±0. 5V around the VDC value). Use the graph to determine the maximum and minimum values for the drain current. (h) Based on the max and min drain currents, what are the max and min values for Vout ? And based on this peak-peak output swing, what is the AC gain of the circuit? (i) What is the AC gain of the circuit of you calculate it directly from the transconductance and the circuit components?

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.

You are at a weekly meeting of your Astronomy Club. The club members are excited because access is now available to real-time data on light intensity from the star at the center of another planetary system. The plane of the system is parallel to the direction from the system toward the Earth, so it is possible to detect transits: a planet passes between the Earth and the star of the system, so that the light from the star dims slightly. The planets of this system are very close to their parent star and revolve very rapidly. Planet X in this system has a period of 2.00 Earth days! As you graph the incoming data from the star as it appears on a computer, you see the dip in light intensity. You make a printout of the graph of light intensity versus time and compare it to the graph from 2.00 days ago. The latest graph shows a difference. The time interval from the beginning of the dimming of the light from the star to the return to full brightness took much longer than it did during the observation 2.00 days ago, and the light became significantly dimmer than the observation 2.00 days ago. As you continue to watch the data over several days, the light data every 2.00 days is similar to that in the first graph. Then, 10.0 days after you noticed the unusual behavior, you see it again! You realize that the unusual behavior must be due to a double occultation: two planets are lined up between you and the other star: Planet X and Planet Y! You inform your club members about the data and they excitedly ask you to find out the percentage by which the semimajor axis of the Planet Y is larger that of Planet X. %
