Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistors offer some advantages (and disadvantages) with respect to bipolar transistors. In this module, we will analyze an MOS transistor amplifier and examine other applications of MOS devices. In modern electronics, MOS play a critical role in integrated circuits. Complementary MOS or CMOS devices will be introduced and applied in analog and digital form. The module also includes both MOS and bipolar transistor amplifier analysis using small signal equivalent circuits.
By the end of this module, you will be able to:

Question 1
An important task in analyzing amplifiers is redrawing the circuit for an AC or small signal analysis. Why does it make sense to replace DC power supplies with a short circuit? Why is the diode of a bipolar transistor likewise replaced by a short circuit for AC analysis?
Question 2
Question 3
Question 4
Question 5
