4.8 In the saturation mode also, iD is directly proportional to W . So, if W is halved, then i D would
also be halved. The vertical axis should thereforefore be scaled by 0.5.
For VOV = 1.5V, by looking at the corresponding curve, we observe that i D = 0.5625 mA.
4.15 The NMOS transistor is operating in the linear resistance region (within the triode region), for

Substituting Vt = 0.8 V in the above equation, we get W/L = 10.

Substituting vGS = 3 V, vDS = 0.15 V, and kn = 50 µA/V 2 in the above equation,
we get iD = 0.165 mA.
In the pinch-off region, vDS = vGS − Vt = 3 V - 0.8 V = 2.2 V.

L ((vGS − Vt )vDS − 0.5vDS ) = 1.21 mA
4.38 All three transistors are in saturation, as their drains are connected to their respective gates,
guaranteeing that the individual v DS s > their vGS − Vt s. While in saturation, the drain current

a Point A: VIA = Vt = 1 V; VOA = VDD = 5 V.

Solving these two equations together, we get V OB = 0.605 V or −0.688 V, of which only
the former one can be correct. Thus, V OB = 0.605 V.
Then, VIB = VOB + Vt = 0.605 V + 1 V = 1.605 V.

c The MOSFET will be in saturation for v I ranging from 1 V to 1.605 V. If the bias point

This difference is because the segment of the voltage transfer curve considered here is not
perfectly linear.
4.55 We plan to design the biasing circuit such that the transistor is in saturation mode.
We shall design RD and RS such that roughly one-third of the voltage drop
(i.e., 15 V / 3 = 5 V) occurs across each of these resistors. Then
RD = R S =

Substituting ID = 2 mA, kn = 80 µA/V 2 , W/L = 40, and Vt = 1.2 V in this equation, we get
VGS = 2.32 V or 0.487 V, of which only the former is correct.
Thus, VGS = 2.32 V.
Voltage at the gate, VG = VS + VGS = ID RS + VGS = 2mA . 2.5KΩ + 2.32V = 7.32V
From the figure, we can see that VG is obtained by the RG1 -RG2 voltage divider arrangement.
And, because the gate current is zero,
G2
VG = 15V RG1R+R
G2
As VG = 7.32 V is less than 15 V / 2, RG2 < RG1 . Therefore, RG1 = 22MΩ.
Substituting in the above equation, we get R G2 = 20.97MΩ.
With this biasing arrangement, VDS = 5 V. If it is designed to be at the edge of saturation,
VDS = VGS − Vt = 2.32 V − 1.2 V = 1.12 V, which is 5 V − 1.12 V = 3.88 V away from the
edge of saturation.

When a +0.1 V signal is superimposed on V GS , iD = 0.5 × 2mA/V 2 × 1.12 = 1.21mA
Increment in drain current, id = 1.21mA − 1mA = 0.21mA

When a −0.1 V signal is superimposed on V GS , iD = 0.5 × 2mA/V 2 × 0.92 = 0.81mA

The gm values are the same in both cases.
