Problem 1. Example Circuit : Common-source amplifier with

resistive load

For the circuit shown in in Fig. 1: VDD = 2V, R₂ = 1KN

(a) Plot the IDs vs Vin characteristics for Vin from 0V to 1.2V.

(b) Plot the gm Vs Vin characteristics for Vin from 0V to 1.2V.

(c) Plot the rds vs Vin characteristics for Vin from 0V to 1.2V.

(d) Plot the intrinsic gain, 9m * Tds Vs Vin characteristics for Vin from 0V to 1.2V.

(e) Plot the large-signal Vout VS Vin characteristics for Vin from 0V to 1.2V.

(f) Plot the small-signal gain of the circuit.
