In this question, we will study the source follower cascaded by a CS stage. Neglect body effect and channel length modulation. (a) First we carry out a dc analysis on the CS stage. In the CS stage circuit shown in Figure 1, assume μnCox(W/L)1 = μpCox(W/L)2 = 1mA/V2, VTN = 0.7V, VTP = −1V, VDD = 2.5V. Calculate I1 and VOUT such that M1 operates in saturation with VGS1 = 0.8 V. What is VIN if M1 is at the edge of saturation? (b) Then we do small signal analysis on the CS stage. In the circuit shown in Figure 1, derive the small signal voltage gain Av = vout/vin. What is the maximum dc level of Vin for which M1 remains saturated? Express VIN by VDD, gate-source voltages and threshold voltages of M1 and M2. (c) To accommodate an input de level close to VDD, we further cascade it with a source follower as shown in Figure 2. Derive the small signal gain vout/vin. If VIN = VDD, what relationship between the gate-source voltages of M2 and M3 guarantees that M1 is saturated?

Consider the following amplifier operating at 300 K. The transistor M1 has μnCox = 250 μA/V2 and Vth = 0.4V. You may assume that M1 operates in saturation region and neglect its channel length modulation (λ = 0). The supply voltage VDD is 1.8V. (a) Find the expression for the input resistance (Rin) assuming that M1 has the transconductance of gm in saturation region. (b) Find the expression for the voltage gain AV=Vout /vin. (c) Explain the phase relationship between the vin and Vout signals. In other words, are they in phase or out of phase? Explain the reason why. (d) If this amplifier stage must provide an output resistance of 500 Ω, what is the maximum allowable value for ID of M1 that keeps M1 in saturation? (e) For the ID value obtained from (d), calculate the required value of W/L that makes the voltage gain Av equal to 10. (f) Calculate the maximum load capacitance (Cout ) that the amplifier can drive at its output while keeping its −3dB bandwidth above 100 MHz.
