EE 440 - DESIGN SET #2 - DUE ONE WEEK
SPICE OR MICROCAP REQUIRED
PROB 2
Design a pulse amplifier with the following specifications:
Input Pulse is as shown:
1. Single or a series of pulses
2. Rise time 1 ns
3. Pulse duration of 10 ns
4. Pulse repetition frequency of 20 Mhz
Amplifier Specifications:
1. Gain at least : 60 - 100 db
2. Droop or Tilt < 0.01%
3. Input:
A current driver with an impedance that varies from zero(pulse
high) to practically infinite(pulse low or zero).
4. Output:
Must be capable of driving both a high and low Impedance
circuit. (There may be two outputs).
High = 50 Kohm or greater.
Low = 50 ohm coax line.
5. Temperature range : 25 to 100oC
6. Show stability analysis
7. Only discrete components are allowed.
8. Both the input and output are capacitor coupled (Show Tilt
Analysis).
9. No feedback except for DC stability is allowed.
