Title: Performance analysis of a common source (CS) E-MOSFET amplifier circuit by varying
the loads and justification of the analysis with respect to simulated and experimental data
(followed by the given constraints).

Objective: Using basic concepts of MOSFET characterization and after sufficient literature
survey, students will design a common source E-MOSFET amplifier circuit and analyze the
gain with varying the loads. Finally, a complete analysis will be expected with respect to
experimental and simulated data.

Instructions:

➢ Gather adequate knowledge about the experiment by thorough literature review.

➢ Construct the CS E-MOSFET amplifier in lab with appropriate apparatus.
➢ Choose parameter values accordingly with proper reasoning behind choosing so.
➢ Determine the voltage gain Av with different load resistors.
➢ Include the experimental set-up and simulation of the experiment in your report and
compare it with the experimental results.
➢ Limitation along with the hypothesis to overcome the obstacles and explanation of any
uncertainties and/or outliers/questionable data must be stated in discussion and
conclusion section.

OEL report:

After completing the experiment, students will generate a report which will include the
following sections:

➢ Experiment title
➢ Objective of the experiment
➢ Literature review
➢ Circuit diagram
➢ Apparatus list with proper values (where applicable)
➢ Result
• Experimental data table
• Simulated data table
➢ Data interpretation and analysis
➢ Discussion and conclusion
➢ Reference (IEEE style).
