- The circuit in Figure B1a is a common analogue circuit block. Explain why you would need such a circuit. Draw another circuit in which you use the current flowing in this loop to bias a common source amplifier. This circuit is not ideal for standard CMOS technologies due to threshold shift. Why? Draw an improved version of this circuit to make it better. VDD (W)P MA M3.
