Project – design a voltage amplifier with a gain of 10 using either the ZVN3306A or ZVP3306A (or both) MOSFETs and as many resistors and capacitors as you need. You should try to get as fast a design as possible driving a 1k load, with an input resistance greater than 50k, with as large of output swing as possible. AC coupling input and output is okay as long as your design can pass a 100 Hz input signal. Your report, in html, should detail your design considerations, and measured results showing the amplifier's performance. Your design can draw no more, under quiescent conditions (no input signal), than 1 mA from a +9 V supply voltage. Your report is due at the beginning of lab on Wednesday, May 8. Access to your CMOSedu.com lab accounts will be removed at this time.
