    Common Source MOSFET Amplifier

    Figure P5-1 shows a common source single transistor MOSFET amplifier utilizing an N-Channel
    Enhancement Mode MOSFET. The term “common source” refers to the source terminal being
    shared by both the input circuit and the output circuit. The parameters for the MOSFET and the
    supply voltage are also given. VDD
    Vt = 1.8V
    k’n(W/L) = 120mA/V2

    Hand Analysis
    P1. In terms of DC bias, determine a value for VGS to set the drain current ID to 5mA. Also
    determine a value for RD to set the VDS bias to 6 V.

    P2. In terms of small-signal parameters, determine the transconductance gm of this amplifier as


    well as the voltage gain, AV .

    P3. If vgs is a 0.1Vpk sinewave at a frequency of 1kHz [ ie. vgs = 0.1sin(2πft)V ] determine an
    expression for the output voltage vOUT as a function of time. Sketch vIN and vOUT for two
    complete cycles, including the DC bias for each signal.

    Simulation
    P4. Simulate the circuit of Figure P5-1 to verify your hand analysis and create a plot similar to
    P3 as part of your prelab. Use the virtual MOSFET model in simulation with SPICE
    parameters VT0 = 1.8V and KP = 120mA/V2. (The default values of 100um for W and L
    will be fine since their ratio equals unity.)

    Figure 5A-1

    L1. Build the circuit of Figure 5A-1 using the BS170 N-Channel Enhancement Mode MOSFET.
    Connect the function generator as shown, which will be used to provide both the DC bias
    and small signal input to the amplifier. Set the power supply VDD to 12 Volts and use the
    value of RD that you determined in your PRELAB.

    DC Bias
    L2. Using the DC OFFSET feature of your function generator, slowly increase VGS while
    monitoring VDS (VOUT) with a voltmeter. Adjust VGS until the output of the amplifier is
    biased to 6VDC. Record the value of VGS required for this bias. Also measure the voltage
    across RD and determine the drain current bias ID.

    NOTE: Be sure that the small-signal ac signal from the function generator is set to ZERO
    while adjusting the DC bias.

    L3. Compare your DC bias measurements for VGS and ID to your PRELAB calculations. How
    do they compare? What prelab assumptions might account for any error?

    Small-Signal Measurements
    L4. Set the function generator to provide a 0.1Vpk, 1kHz input signal in addition to the DC bias
    (ie. vgs = 0.1sin(2πft) V, where f=1kHz).

    L5. Using the oscilloscope, measure both the input and output signals vIN and vOUT on the same
    voltage scale for comparison. If your circuit is working properly, you should see an
    amplified version of your input signal on the scope. Is the output inverted with respect to
    the input? Why?

    ECE 2201 Microelectronics I Rev. 01/08/09

    L6. Adjust the oscilloscope so that two complete cycles of the waveforms are visible and record
    your waveforms.

    NOTE: Be sure to use DIRECT COUPLING so that both the DC and ac portions of the
    signals are measured.

    L7. Using your scope measurements, determine the voltage gain AV of the amplifier. How does
    this compare to your PRELAB calculation.

    Distortion
    L8. One method of determining the linearity of an amplifier is to input a triangle wave and to
    look for distortion. Change the input signal to a triangle wave and slowly increase the
    amplitude of the input signal while observing the output on the scope. Continue increasing
    the amplitude until the signal clips and record your waveforms. At what level of input does
    the bottom half of the signal clip? The top half?

    WRITE-UP

    DC Bias
    W1. Indicate how you determined the DC bias for your MOSFET amplifier and compare your
    hand analysis, simulation and lab measurements.

    amplifier and compare your hand analysis, simulation and lab measurements.

    Distortion
    W3. Qualitatively comment on the linearity of your amplifier. Indicate the input levels where
    the output waveform showed noticeable distortion and clipping.
