Repeat Problem 6.29 except replace each pnp transistor with a p-channel MOS transistor and replace each npn transistor with an n-channel MOS transistor. Assume V_t= 0.5 V and V_ov= 0.1 V for all n-channel MOS transistors. Also, assume V_t= ˆ’ 0.5 V and V_ov= ˆ’ 0.1 V for all p-channel MOS transistors.

Data from Prob. 6.29:

In Fig. 6.31b, resistive loads were used to extend the common-mode input range to include ˆ’V_EE. Fig. 6.62 shows another circuit with this characteristic.²² Find the common-mode range of this circuit. Assume that V_BE(on) = 0.7 V and V_CE(sat) = 0.1 V for the npn transistors. Also, assume that V_BE(on) = ˆ’ 0.7 V and V_CE(sat) = ˆ’0.1 V for the pnp transistors. Ignore base currents for simplicity.
