Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Calculate the required gate voltage for a common source amplifier if the desired output current is 1 mA and the threshold voltage is 1V, given a transconductance factor K of 100 μA/V².

💡 Hint: Think about how you isolate the voltage in relation to the threshold.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a common source amplifier configuration that can amplify an input signal of 10 mV to 1 V, while ensuring the transistor remains in saturation. Describe your approach.

💡 Hint: Remember to consider both the required gain and saturation conditions.
