Project – design a transimpedance amplifier (TIA) using either the ZVN3306A or ZVP3306A (or both) MOSFETs and as many resistors and capacitors as you need with a gain of 30k. You should try to get as fast a design as possible driving a 10k load 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 current. Your report, in html, should detail your design considerations, and measured results showing the TIA's performance. Note that this is the same project assigned last year so this year we will have one more constraint, that is, your design can draw no more, under quiescent conditions (no input signal), than 0.3 mA from a +9 V supply voltage (quiescent power consumption is less than 2.7 mW for any power supply you use). Your report is due at the beginning of lab on Wednesday, May 3. Access to your CMOSedu.com accounts will be removed at this time.

Policies 

  • Unlike the lectures, laptops can be used during the lab. Please bring your laptop with you to lab!
  • If a quiz is open book then only the course textbook can be used (no ebooks, older/international editions, or photocopies).
  • No late work accepted. Regularly being tardy for labs, leaving in the middle of labs, or leaving early is unacceptable without consent of the instructor.
  • Cheating or plagiarism will result in an automatic F grade in the lab
  • Questions for the instructor (only) should be asked in person (not via email).
