Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a current mirror for a device that requires a steadiness of 10 mA with a power supply of 15 V and a required compliance voltage of 1.5 V. Determine the maximum load it can handle.

💡 Hint: Divide the effective voltage by the current specified.

Challenge 2 Hard

If a current mirror produces 3 mA but the total voltage drops across the loads reaches 5 V, and your supply voltage is 9 V, what should be the minimum V_ON to maintain functionality?

💡 Hint: Calculate to ascertain voltage remaining for operation.
