Shown in Fig. P3.25 is another NMOS telescopic cascode amplifier, this time with the additional transistors included. As in Problem 3.23, it is realized using the 0.35-μm CMOS devices in Table 1.5 with , , , and .

a. Estimate the small-signal gain, , and output resistance.

b. What is the total power consumption of the circuit?

c. Estimate the range of output voltages over which all transistors will remain in active mode.

d. How does this circuit compare with the amplifier in Problem 3.23?
