Question:

Calculate the small-signal voltage gain of a common-source amplifier with depletion load in Fig. 4.20, including both the body effect and channel-length modulation. Assume that VDD= 3 V and that the dc input voltage is adjusted so that the dc output voltage is 1 V. Assume that M1has drawn dimensions of W = 100 µm and L = 1 µm. Also, assume that M2has drawn dimensions of W = 10 µm and L = 1 µm. For M2, assume Vt0= ˆ’1 V. For both transistors, assume that Xd= 0. Use Table 2.4 for other parameters of both transistors.
