Transcribed Image Text:Consider the circuit shown below of a common source amplifier with a current mirror bias. Find the
following:
a. Find kp and kn.
b. Find the drain current of M2 given that IBIAS = 2mA and VouT = 2.5V.
c. Find the gm and r. of transistor M1.
d. Sketch the small signal model of transistor M3 (Hint: Is there any small signal in any terminal of
M3? If yes, then where is it? If no, then what happens to the small signal model?).
It is given that the NMOS (M1) parameters are H,Con = 3mA/V? , VTH,n = 0.5V and A = 0.02 and the PMOS
(M2 and M3) parameters are µ.Cox = 1mA/V? and VTH,p = -0.6V. The PMOS transistor M3 does not have
channel length modulation while PMOS transistor M2 has A = 0.02. It is also given that the dimensions of
M2 and M3 have equal widths of 5µm and lengths of L2 = 3µm and L3 = 1.5µm, respectively. M1 has
length of L1 = 1µm and width of W1 = 2µm.
