Part 1: Common-Collector (CC) Amplifier/Emitter Follower For the common collector (CC) amplifier characterized, answer the following questions with simulated and measured data and discuss any discrepancy between the simulation and measurement results. Q1. (15 Points) Based on the simulation and measurement data obtained in Steps 1.2 and 1.6: (1) plot the simulated and measured Vo vs. Vsig characteristics and discuss/justify the characteristics. Figure 1: Simulated Vo vs Vsig of an Emitter Follower (Step 1.2) Figure 2: Measured Vo vs Vsig of an Emitter Follower (Step 1.6) -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 Vo (Volt) Vsig (Volt) Simulated Vo vs. Vsig of a Emitter Follower -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 Vo (Volt) Vsig (Volt) Measured Vo vs. Vsig of a Emitter Follower
(2) To ensure the circuit works as a common-collector (CC) amplifier, find the DC input range for Vsig and the output voltage range for Vo. The range of Vsig when the current is constant is -2.5V < Vsig < 5V and the range of Vo when the current is constant is -3V < Vo < 4.45V in order for the BJT to operate in the forward active region. (3) Find the Vsig value that results in Vo ≈ 0. Based on the results in step 1.2 the Vsig value that results in Vo ≈ 0V (Vo = -5.27 x10^-2 V) is 0.5V as shown in the table below. Figure 3: Simulated Vo and Vsig values (Step 1.2) Based on the results in step 1.6 the Vsig value that results in Vo ≈ 0V (Vo = -0.096V) is also 0.5V as shown in the table below. Figure 4: Measured Vo and Vsig values (Step 1.6)
Q2. (10 Points) Based on the simulation and measurement data obtained in Steps 1.3 and 1.8, what are the simulated and measured intrinsic voltage gain Avo at low frequency (i.e., 100 Hz) for this CC amplifier? Report its magnitude in dB and phase in degree. Based on the simulation data obtained in step 1.3 the intrinsic voltage gain Avo at low frequency (100 Hz) is 0.00dB, and the phase in degrees is -8.47 x10 ^-5 deg. This is seen in the excel data table below. Figure 5: Voltage gain of a CC amplifier (Step 1.3) Based on the measured data obtained in step 1.8 the intrinsic voltage gain Avo at low frequency (100 Hz) is 0.8 dB, and the phase in degrees is approximately 0 deg as when measured both graphs seem to be in phase with the generated scope. Figure 6: Measured voltage gain of a CC amplifier (Step 1.8) Part 2: Differential Amplifier with Current Mirror (CM) Load For the current mirror designed, answer the following questions with simulated data and justify the simulation results. Q3. (15 Points) (1) Based on Section 8.2.3 in the textbook, derivate the relationship to express Io as a function of IREF. ࠵? ! ࠵? "#$ = ࠵? % ࠵? % (1 + 2 ࠵? ) ࠵? ! ࠵? "#$ = 1 (1 + 2 ࠵? ) ࠵? ! = ࠵? "#$ (1 + 2 ࠵? )
