6 sample questions

Question 1.
What is the role of a current mirror?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how current is managed in electronic circuits.
Question 2.
What does the term 'saturation' refer to in a MOSFET?
Show hintHide hint
Consider the maximum state of a switch.
3Question 3.
What is a current mirror primarily used for?
- Amplifying signals
- Replicating currents
- Voltage regulation
Show hintHide hint
Revisit the application of current mirrors in circuits.
4Question 4.
True or False: A MOSFET in saturation will not allow any current to pass through.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about the operational states of the MOSFET.
Question 5.
Design a current mirror where the reference current is 2 mA and the output is affected by λ = 0.02 V^-1. Find the output current for V_ds = 6V.
Show hintHide hint
Don't forget to factor in the finite lambda when computing current to maintain accuracy.
Question 6.
Assess a current mirror design using MOSFETs with different K values. Derive how altering one K value affects the overall performance.
Show hintHide hint
Compare before and after values and examine the changes thoroughly.
