Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a MOSFET with W=20μm, L=5μm, K=1.5, V_GS=4V, and V_th=1V. Calculate I_DS if V_DS is 3V. How does changing V_DS to 6V affect I_DS?
💡 Hint: Use the I_DS formula for saturation.
If V_GS is reduced to 2V in the above scenario, what will be the new behavior of I_DS? Discuss.
💡 Hint: Refer to the effect of threshold voltage.
