The slope of the inverter VTC (Vout-Vin curve) is also the small- signal voltage gain of the common source amplifier. Assume VDD = 5V and Vin M₁ Vthn 0.7 V for the NMOS, use PSPICE to simulate the VTC (sweep from 0 to 5 V) of the common source amplifier for the following conditions: (a) Fix RD = 100 kN, L = 1 µm, W = 1 μm. Vary kn² = 20, 100, and 500 μА/V². (b) Fix kn' = 100 µA/V², R₁ = 100 kQ, L = 1 μm. Vary W = 1, 5, and 50 μm. (c) Fix kn' = 1 100 μA/V², L = 1 µm, W= 1 µm. Vary RD = 10 k2, 100 kQ, 1 MQ. Compare the slopes of the VTCs (which correspond to the voltage gains of the amplifiers) you obtained from the various conditions in a-c and explain your results.arrow_forward
