Chapter 4
Basic FET Amplifiers
Neamen Microelectronics Chapter 4-2 October 15, 2012 McGraw-Hill
In this chapter, we will:
Investigate a single-transistor circuit that can amplify a small, time-varying input signal
Develop small-signal models that are used in the analysis of linear amplifiers.
Discuss and compare the three basic transistor amplifier configurations.
Analyze the common-source amplifier.
Analyze the source-follower amplifier.
Analyze the common-gate amplifier.
Analyze multitransistor or multistage amplifiers.
Design a two-stage MOSFET amplifier circuit.

Problem-Solving Technique: MOSFET AC Analysis
1. Analyze circuit with only the dc sources to find quiescent solution. Transistor must be biased in saturation region for linear amplifier.
2. Replace elements with small-signal model.
3. Analyze small-signal equivalent circuit, setting dc sources to zero, to produce the circuit to the time-varying input signals only.

Common-Source Configuration
DC analysis:
Coupling capacitor is assumed
to be open.
AC analysis:
Coupling capacitor is assumed
to be a short. DC voltage
supply is set to zero volts.
