MOSFET DC Circuit Analysis - NMOS • The source terminal is at ground and common to both input and output portions of the circuit. • The CC acts as an open circuit to dc but it allows the signal voltage to the gate of the MOSFET. VG = VTH = R2 VDD R1 + R2 • In the DC equivalent circuit, the gate current into the transistor is zero, the voltage at the gate is given by a voltage divider principle: Use KVL at GS loop: VGS –VTH + 0 = 0 VGS = VTH
MOSFET DC Circuit Analysis - NMOS • Assume the transistor is biased in the saturation region, the drain current: • Use KVL at DS loop • IDRD + VDS – VDD = 0 • If VDS > VDS(sat) = VGS – VTN, then the transistor is biased in the saturation region. • If VDS < VDS(sat), then the transistor is biased in the nonsaturation region.
EXAMPLE: Calculate the drain current and drain to source voltage of a common source circuit with an n-channel enhancement mode MOSFET. Assume that R1 = 30 k, R2 = 20 k, RD = 20 k, VDD = 5V, VTN = 1V and Kn = 0.1 mA/V2 VTH = 20 5 = 2V hence VGS = VTH = 2V 30 + 20 VDSsat = VGS – VTN = 2 – 1 = 1V, so, VDS > VDSsat, our assumption that the transistor is in saturation region is correct
EXAMPLE VDD = 10V • The transistor has parameters VTN = 2V and Kn = 0.25mA/V2. • Find ID and VDS RD = 10k R1 = 280k R2 = 160k
Solution 2. Assume in saturation mode: ID = Kn(VGS - VTN)2 So, ID = 0.669 mA 3. KVL at DS loop: VDS = VDD – IDRD = 10 – 0.669 (10) = 3.31 V 4. VDS sat = VGS – VTN = 3.636 – 2 = 1.636 V So, VDS > VDSsat , therefore, assumption is correct! 1. VTH = 160 10 = 3.636 V 160 + 280 KVL at GS loop: VGS – VTH + 0 = 0 VGS = VTH Answer: ID = 0.669 mA and VDS = 3.31 V
MOSFET DC Circuit Analysis - PMOS Different notation: VSG and VSD Threshold Voltage = VTP VG = VTH = R2 VDD R1 + R2 Use KVL at GS loop: VSG + 0 + VTH – VDD = 0 VSG = VDD - VTH
MOSFET DC Circuit Analysis - PMOS • Assume the transistor is biased in the saturation region, the drain current: • Calculate VSD: • Use KVL at DS loop: • VSD + IDRD - VDD = 0 ID = Kp (VSG + VTP)2 VSD = VDD - IDRD • If VSD >VSD(sat) = VSG + VTP, then the transistor is biased in the saturation region. • If VSD < VSD(sat), then the transistor is biased in the non-saturation region.
Calculate the drain current and source to drain voltage of a common source circuit with an p-channel enhancement mode MOSFET. Also find the power dissipation. Assume that, VTP = -1.1V and Kp = 0.3 mA/V2 5V Use KVL at SG loop: VSG + 0 +2.5 – 5 = 0 VSG = 5 – 2.5 = 2.5 V Assume biased in saturation mode: Hence, ID = 0.3 ( 2.5 – 1.1)2 = 0.5888mA Calculate VSD Use KVL at SD loop: VSD + IDRD – 5 = 0 VSD = 5 - IDRD VSD = 5 – 0.5888 ( 7.5) = 0.584 V 50 k VSG > |VTP | 50 k 7.5 k
VSD sat = VSG + VTP = 2.5 – 1.1 = 1.4V Hence, VSD < VSD sat. Therefore assumption is incorrect. The transistor is in non-saturation mode! ID = 0.3 2 ( 2.5 – 1.1) (5 – IDRD) – (5 – IDRD)2 ID= 0.3 2.8 (5 – 7.5ID) – (5-7.5ID)2 ID = 0.3 14 – 21ID– (25 – 75ID + 56.25ID2) ID = 0.3 14 – 21ID -25 +75ID – 56.25ID2 56.25 ID2 – 50.67 ID + 11 = 0 ID = 0.536 mA ID = 0.365 mA
ID = 0.536 mA ID = 0.365 mA VSD = 5 – IDRD = 0.98 V VSD = 5 – IDRD = 2.26 V VSD sat = VSG + VTP = 2.5 – 1.1 = 1.4V 0.98V < 1.4V Smaller than VSD sat : OK! 2.26V > 1.4V Bigger than VSD sat : not OK Answer: ID = 0.536 mA and VSD = 0.98V Power dissipation = ID x VSD = 0.525 mW

ID 5 - VD = ID VD = 5 - 2ID 2 ID Use KVL: Or use node voltages: VDS = VD - VS IDRD + VDS + IDRS – 5 – 5 = 0 1.354 (2) + VDS + 1.354 – 10 = 0 VDS = 10 – 1.354 – 2.708 = 5.938 V where VD = 5 - 2( 1.354) = 2.292 V And VS = ID - 5 = - 3. 646 V So, VDS = 2.292 – (-3.646) = 5.938 V VDS sat = VGS – VTN = 2.646 – 1 = 1.646 V VDS > VDS sat CONFIRMED
