Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A differential amplifier has I_CQ = 0.8 mA, R_C = 6.8 kΩ. Calculate A_d and explain the significance of your answer in practical applications.

💡 Hint: Make sure to calculate g_m first based on I_CQ and V_T.

Question 2

Given a scenario where A_cm measures at 0.01 V while A_d measures at 15 V, compute CMRR in dB and discuss how this impacts performance.

💡 Hint: Remember the logarithmic relation and its impact on noise bias calculations.
