file: ~/courses/spring2002/302/302_exam_study.txt RWN 03/14/02 Some ENEE 302 Midterm Exam Study points 1. Biasing of a PNP/NPN BJT circuit and comparison with biasing a PMOS/NMOS. 2. Inverters: CMOS break point calculations, power consumption, BJT comparison. 3. Spice models, regions of transistor operation, and use for hand calculations (inverters and switches for logic functions). 4. Diodes - characteristics and use in rectification and switching. 5. Current sources - how to make with PNP, NPN, NMOS and PMOS; their characteristics and how to measure; behavior for smaill perturbations using small signal models.
