Question:
Repeat Problem 7.12 for a NMOS commongate stage using RL = 0 and RS = ∞. Use ID = 0.5 mA and the MOS transistor data in Problem 7.2. Plot the impedance magnitudes from f = 100 kHz to f = 100 GHz.
Data from Prob. 7.12:
A common-base stage has the following parameters: IC = 0.5 mA, Cπ = 10 pF, Cμ = 0.3 pF, rb = 200 Ω, β = 100, ro = ∞, RL = 0, and RS = ∞.
(a) Calculate an expression for the small-signal current gain of the stage as a function of frequency and thus determine the frequency where the current gain is 3 dB below its low-frequency value.
(b) Calculate the values of the elements in the small-signal equivalent circuits for the input and output impedances of the stage and sketch the magnitudes of these impedances from f = 100 kHz to f = 100 MHz using log scales.
