Question: For an NMOS differential pair with a common - mode voltage V C M applied, as shown in the figure below, let k n '

For an NMOS differential pair with a common-mode voltage VCM applied, as shown in the figure below, let kn'=0.8mAV2,(WL)1,2=12,Vtn=0.4V,RD=5k, and VOV=0.8V neglect channellength modulation ().
a) Find VGSI and VGS2.
b) Find ID1,ID2, and I.
c) For VCM=0, find VS,ID1,ID2,VD1, and VD2.
d) Repeat (c) for VCM=+0.4V.
e) What is the highest value of VCM for which Q1 and Q2 remain in saturation?
f) If current source I requires a minimum voltage of 0.2 V to operate properly, what is the lowest value allowed for VS and hence for VCM?
For an NMOS differential pair with a common -
