Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 1

In the common drain amplifier shown below, if RS = 4 KΩ, RG = 10 MΩ, μ = 50 and rd = 35 KΩ then the voltage gain Av of the amplifier is approximately equal to

Detailed Solution: Question 1

The small signal equivalent circuit of common-drain amplifier is shown below.

Using Thevenin’s theorem, the output voltage is


(where, Vgd = Vi = input voltage)
∴ Voltage gain is

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 2

The value of V0/Vin for the circuit shown below is (Assume M1 in saturation)

Detailed Solution: Question 2

M2 is also saturated because its gate and drain are shorted together. The small signal circuit is shown below:

Here, 
For most MOSFET transistor, rd1 and d2 are much greater than 1/gm2.
Hence, 
Now, 
∴ 
= Required voltage gain

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 3

Consider the following statements:
1. In most linear applications of field-effect transistors the device is operated in the. constant-current portion of its output characteristics.
2. In the region before pinch-off, where VDS is small, the FET is useful as a voltage variable resistors (VVR).
3. The VVR can be used in AGC amplifier to vary the voltage gain of multistage amplifier.

Q. Which of the above statements is/are correct?

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 4

In the saturation region, the I- VGS characteristics of a MOSFET are

Detailed Solution: Question 4

For amplifier operation, MOSFET is always operated in saturation region.
Since, in saturation region,therefore the ID - VGS characteristics of a MOSFET are quadratic as evident from the above equation.

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 5

The source-bias circuit provides DC biasing for the FET. The resistance from gate to ground (RS) in that circuit is necessary because, without it,

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 6

In an FET common-source high frequency amplifier, which one of the following is the correct expression for input capacitance Ci ?

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 7

A JFET is set up as a source follower. Given, μ = 200, rd = 100 kΩ and source load resistance RL = 1 kΩ. The output resistance R0 is given approximately by

Detailed Solution: Question 7

We know that,
μ = gmrd
or, 
Output resistance,

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 8

A FET tuned amplifier with gm = 5 mA/V, rd = 20 kΩ has a resonant impedance of 20 kΩ. The gain at resonance is given by

Detailed Solution: Question 8

AV = Gain at resonance = gmR
Here, R = rd ║Rmax 

∴ AV = 5x 10-3 x 10 x 103 = 50

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 9

The unity gain bandwidth fT of a JFET is given by

Test: Basic FET Amplifiers- 2 - Question 10

 The transconductance for a JFET having  IDSS = 8 mA, VP = -4 V and biased to operate at VGS = - 1.8 volt will be given by

Detailed Solution: Question 10
