Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a common source amplifier that operates with a supply voltage of 15V and a required output swing of 10V, selecting bias resistor values to achieve this.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the implications of the swing on resistor values.

Question 2

Given a bias current set at 1 mA, how would you adjust your design if the maximum gain needs to be achieved?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Examine the relationship of gain with respect to the transistor parameters.
