1. Different parts of this question are independent of each other. kT/q=25mV at 300K. [25]
a. Assume ni=1010/cm3, μn=1600cm2/Vs for Si at room temperature. It is found that a
piece of n-type Si sample has resistivity =100Ω-cm. Find the concentration of electrons
and holes in this material. You may make any reasonable approximation. [6]
b. The excess hole concentration in a n-type material with uniform ND=10 cm and cross-
17 -3

The hole mobility μp=640cm2/V-s.

i. Find the hole current density. [3]
ii. Total number of excess holes in this sample. [3]

i. Draw a p-n junction and indicate the type and direction of the four conventional
currents across the depletion region of p-n junction under equilibrium. [4]
ii. Draw the charge density function everywhere in the p-n junction and indicate its

2. For the following circuit, assume kn=1mA/V2, Vt=1V and |VA|=50V, for the MOSFET and VD-
ON=0.7V, rD-ON=1kΩ for the diode D1. The MOSFET is biased in the saturation region through a
constant current source of 1mA connect at the Drain. [25]
a. We will design suitable values of RG1 and RG2 such that the DC-bias voltage at the Drain
VD=0V. Note: We then do not need an output ac coupling capacitor:

MP2 and a second NMOS transistor MN2. Both these transistors have aspect ratio W/L=2; rest
of the parameters are identical.
i. Find the Drain current ID-P2 in the transistor MP2. [3]
ii. Find the value of VBIAS such that the Drain current ID-N2 is the same as the Drain
current in transistor MP2. [3]
