Ve311 Homework #4

Note:
(1) Please use A4 size papers.
(2) Please use the SPICE model on page 3 for simulation and calculation.
1. [MOSFET DC Biasing, 60%] Use the drain current equations below.
Don’t consider channel-length modulation and body effect. Assuming
Wdrawn / Ldrawn = 20 µm / 2 µm, sketch IX of M1 as a function of VX
increasing from 0 V to VDD = 5 V. (Note: finish this part before the
midterm exam)

2. [MOSFET Small-Signal Model] Assume Wdrawn / Ldrawn = 20 µm / 2 µm.
(a) [20%] Use Pspice to plot the drain current of a NMOS as a function
of VDS increasing from 0 V to 5 V, at VGS = 1 V, 1.5 V and 2 V. Label
the off, triode and saturation regions for each curve. Derive ro from each
curve in the saturation region and compare it with hand-calculation result.
(b) [20%] Use Pspice to plot the drain current of a NMOS as a function
of VGS increasing from 0 V to 3 V, at VDS = 5 V. Derive gm from the
curve when VGS = 2 V and compare it with hand-calculation result.
