Q5
Figure 5 shows the circuit diagram for a two-stage amplifier. You may assume that the
parameters are ß= 0.025 A/V², threshold voltage V1= 0.6 V, and VA = 10 V for each
transistor. For the capacitors, you can use the mid-band frequency range approximation.
All other values are shown beside the schematic.
(а)
What kind of configuration is used for the 2 stages amplifier?
(b)
What kind of amplifier is M1 part of? and what about M2?
(c)
Calculate the DC IDs for Mi and M2.
(d)
Calculate gm and ro for M1 and M2.
Draw the combined small-signal equivalent circuit suitable for mid band
frequency analysis for the entire amplifier. State any assumption.
(e)
(f)
Determine the numerical values for:
(i) Voltage gain of the entire amplifier.
(ii) input resistance of the entire amplifier.
Modify the circuit designing the amplifier to be more stable and resistant to
NMOS component value variation changing the gain. Show the calculation and
justify your choice.
