EE5310/EE3002: Analog Circuits Tutorial 1 Problems 6, 8, 10, 11 Are Optional

This document contains instructions and problems for an analog circuits tutorial. It includes 4 practice problems about determining operating points and small signal behavior of circuits containing transistors, resistors, voltage sources, and current sources. The problems get progressively more complex, analyzing nonlinear behavior and requiring plotting of characteristics. Problems 6, 8, 10 and 11 listed in the first line are optional extra problems.

k = nCox = 100 A/V2, (W/L) = 10, VT = 0.7 V

For the circuit of Figure 1, assume that vi is an incremental voltage source. Determine the operating point of the
network. Find also the small signal voltage across the 1 k
resistor.

Problem 210)
In this problem, we delve deeper into the notion of small
signal. Consider two nonlinear ampliers, with inputoutput characteristics given by Vout =

An incremental gain of 10 is desired of both amplifers.


Determine the operating points so that this gain may be
achieved.

We saw in class that the small signal approximation


is valid only when the higher order terms in the Taylor series can be safely neglected in relation to the linear
term. Compare the second order derivative of the two
amplifers around the operating point. What can you say
about the relative magnitudes of the incremental inputs
for each of the ampliers which qualify as small signals
?
