A differential amplifier with a single-ended output is shown below along with the MOSFET parameters. The amplifier is to be designed for a differential mode gain of 10 and a CMRR of 200 . The current source I must have a voltage drop VCS ≥ 1 volt. The voltage V0 = 0 when the MOSFET gates are at ground potential (Va = Vb = 0).

Exercise 8.4 Consider the MOSFET amplifier shown in Figure 8.3. Assume that the amplifier is operated under the saturation discipline. In its saturation region, the MOSFET is characterized by the equation iDS = K 2 (vGS − VT)2 where iDS is the drain-to-source current when a voltage vGS is applied across its gate-to-source terminals. Figure 8.3: a) Write an expression relating vO to vI. What is its operating point output voltage VO, given an input operating point voltage of VI ? What is the corresponding operating point current IDS ? b) Assuming an operating point input voltage of VI, derive the expression relating the small signal output voltage vo to the small signal input vi from the relationship between vO and vI. What is the small signal gain of the amplifier at the input operating point of VI ? c) Draw the small signal equivalent circuit for the amplifier based on the SCS model of the MOSFET assuming the operating point input voltage is VI. d) Derive an expression for the small signal gain of the amplifier from the small signal equivalent circuit. Verify that the gain computed from the small signal equivalent circuit is identical to the gain computed in part (b). e) By what factor must RL change to double the small signal gain of the amplifier? What is the corresponding change in the output bias voltage? f) By what factor must VI change to double the small signal gain of the amplifier? What is the corresponding change in the output bias voltage?

In this question, you are asked to find the effective transconductance (Gm) and the resistance into the drain (Rx) of a common-source amplifier with source degeneration. Based on the results, the voltage gain of a common-source amplifier with source degeneration will be evaluated a) The figures shown below are a circuit to find the effective transconductance (G) of the NMOSEFT with source degeneration (left) and its corresponding small-signal circuit (right). It is noted that the output is shorted to VDD (ac grounded) since the definition of effective transconductance is the ratio between the short-circuit output current and the input signal voltage. Prove that Gm is given by Gm = id/vin = gm/1+gmRs In this calculation, the current passing through ro can be neglected since, in general, ro is very large when the NMOSFET operates in saturation region and so this current is very small. Thus, the indication of id is the current of the voltage-controlled current source (gmvgs) only. b) The figure shown below is the method to evaluate the resistance looking into the drain (i.e. Rx) of a source-degenerated NMOSFET. The circuit is shown on the left while the equivalent small-signal modeling is shown on the right. It is noted that the bias condition (VBiAS) is set so that the values of gm and ro, can be defined. Moreover, there is no input signal (i.e. Vin = 0) since we would like to see the value of Rx which is due to the circuit only but not due to the external effect. Based on the above small-signal model, prove that RX = ro(1 + gmRS) The complete common-source amplifier with source degeneration is shown below. c) The complete common-source amplifier with source degeneration is shown below. Prove that the voltage gain of this amplifier is given by v. Vin Explain the reason(s) why the voltage gain is negative. What is the physical meaning of negative voltage gain?
