3) (14pts) Below is a circuit that you have not seen before. Assume that a ramp signal shown
below is applied to the circuit. The ramp signal has a minimum voltage of -6V and a maximum
of 6V. If it helps, you may assume that: Vin = t -6V. Use a constant offset model with VON = .
6V. Be careful with your work!
a) Sketch Vo on the same graph as Vin.
b) Determine numerical values for the minimum and maximum output voltages.

4) (3 pts) Suppose the circuit shown below is heated, would Vo increase or decrease? (Neglect the
temperature dependence of the resistor) Justify your answer. You will get no credit if you do
not justify your answer.

5) (24 pts) For the circuit shown below use a constant offset model for the diodes with VON = .6V
a) Assume all the diodes can be modeled as voltage sources. Appropriately determine ID or
VD for all the diodes and Indicate contradictions
b) Assume all the diodes can be modeled as opens. Appropriately determine ID or VD for all
the diodes and Indicate contradictions
