Instructions:
DO NOT TAKE APART ANY PAGES OF THIS EXAM AND SHOW ALL WORK ON
THE PROVIDED PAGES. Read ail the problems carefully and thoroughly before you
begin working. You are allowed to use 1 new sheet of notes (1 page front and back),
your note sheet from the previous exams as well as a calculator. There are 100 total
points in this exam. Observe the point value of each problem and allocate your time
accordingly. SHOW ALL WORK AND CIRCLE YOUR FINAL ANSWER WITH THE
PROPER UNITS INDICATED. Write legibly. If I cannot read it, it will be considered a
wrong answer. Do all work on the paper provided. Turn in all scratch paper, even if it
did not lead to an answer. Report any and all ethics violations to the instructor. Good
luck!

First 30% Multiple Choice and True/False (Select the most correct answer)
1.) (6-points total) Identify the bias mode of the following MOS capacitors.
(ay_tnversion (B) Acer lavion(C) Depletion
2.) (4-points) For the three capacitors in problem 1, which is true:
a), They could be used to make a NMOS MOSFET
ey could be used to make a PMOS MOSFET
‘c) The diagrams clearly show the Source-Gate bias
d), The diagrams clearly show the Drain-Gate bias
tre diagrams clearly show the Body-Gate bias
3.) (4-points) True enhancement mode NMOS MOSFET was invented after the
depletion mode NMOS MOSFET and can conduct current in it’s drain-source circuit-even
with Vcs=0 valts.
4.) (4-points) In the MOSFET transistor to
the right, what is the voltage across the § D
pinched off region?

e.) Not enough information given to Nae pe ne a a

5.) (3-pointsFrugy False: A well designed current amplifier should have a very low input
resistance.
6.) (9-points) Name three improvements that feedback can do to a voltage amplifier
a) Increase Bandwidyh ( freq. response)

Pulling all the concepts together for a useful purpose:
8.) (S0-points) Given the following circuit, (a) Identify the configuration of BOTH of
the two stages (common ). (b) What is the AC voltage gain, Vou/Vin? You may
assume all capacitors have infinite capacitance. You may assume all inductors have infinite
inductance, Additionally consider the circuit to be operated at low frequencies where you can
neglect all small signal capacitances.
Grading will be based as such: part a~5 points, part b=18 points for DC solution (gate, source
and drain voltages along with drain current), 9 points for the conversion to the small signal
model and 18 points for small signal analysis.
