1. (a) Determine the region of operation of M1 in each of the circuits 8
CO1 L4 shown in Fig. 1. (Vtn = 0.6 V, Vtp = -0.6 V). Justify each with relevant
equations.
1. (b) Design the circuit of Fig. 2, determine the values of RD and RS so
that the transistor operates at ID = 0.4 mA and VD = +0.5 V. The NMOS
CO1 L2 transistor has VT = 0.7 V, unCox, = 100 uA/V2, L = 1 um, and W = 32 um. 12

2. (b) Fig. 3 shows a discrete MOSFET amplifier utilizing a drain-to-gate
resistance RG for biasing purposes. The input signal vi is coupled to the
gate via a large capacitor, and the output signal at the drain is coupled to
the load resistance RL via another large capacitor. Analyze this amplifier
circuit to determine its small-signal voltage gain, its input resistance, and

the largest allowable input signal. The transistor has Vt= 1.5 V, kn (W/L)
