Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a simple CMOS op-amp by detailing how you would implement each stage (differential amplifier, voltage gain stage, output stage) and explain the purpose of each stage.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think functionallyβ€”each part plays a role in the overall signal processing.

Question 2

Discuss how altering the tail current source affects the op-amp performance. What would happen if the tail current fluctuates?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the role of consistency and stability in electrical parameters.
