(link to errata for 5th edition)

This list was prepared from the first printing of the textbook.
Some of these errata have been corrected in later printings, which is easy to understand. Some additinal errata have been accidentally introduced into later printings! Where I have information on errata unique
to later printings, I have included appropriate corrections.
Page 46, Problem 1.39 part (b)
Change "v = 10 μV" to "vI = 10 μV"                   (Posted 9/06/2012)

Page 112, Problem D2.34 part (d)
Add the word "Norton" so that part (d) reads as follows:
(d) If the amplifier is fed with a Norton current source having a
current of 0.2 mA and a source resistance of 10 Kohms, find iL.

Page 217, Figure P4.3 part (b)
The top diode should be labled D1 and
the bottom diode should be labeled D2.
        (Posted 9/16/2010) 

Page 220, Problem 4.22 Part (d)
Delete part (d) from the problem.
(It is a duplicate of Part(b))         (Posted 9/20/2010) 

Page 226, Problem 4.75 Part (C)
Add, "during conduction" to part (c) so that it reads,
"(c) What is the average diode current during conduction?"
        (Posted 10/21/2010) 

Page 226, Problem 4.76.
In part (b) of the statement from problem 4.75, replace the word "diode" with "rectifier." The problem then reads
      (b) For what fraction of a cycle does the rectifier conduct?
In part (c) add the phrase, "through each diode during conduction." and delete one instance of the word "diode." The question then reads. . .
      (c) What is the average current through each diode during conduction?
In part (d) add the phrase, "through each diode?" and delete one instance of the word "diode." The question then reads. . .
      (d) What is the peak current through each diode?
Also see below for a clarification of this problem.

Page 226, Problem 4.77.
In part (b) of the statement from problem 4.75, replace the phrase, "does the diode conduct" with the phrase, "is there conduction through the secondary winding of the transformer." The problem then reads
      (b) For what fraction of a cycle is there conduction through the
            secondary winding of the transformer?
In part (c) add the phrase, "through each diode during conduction." and delete one instance of the word "diode." The question then reads. . .
      (c) What is the average current through each diode during conduction?
In part (d) add the phrase, "through each diode?" and delete one instance of the word "diode." The question then reads. . .
      (d) What is the peak current through each diode?
Also see below for a clarification of this problem.

Page 270, Equation 5.35
The equation given is not the definition of Av.
Change equation 5.35 to read as follows:
corrected equation 5.35
        (Posted 12/04/2010) 

Page 327, Problem D5.5
Replace the last line of the problem statement with,
"maximum allowed VGS  of 1.8 V."
            (Posted 10/12/2012.) 

Page 331, Problem 5.24
In the problem statement replace "(a)" with "(i)" and replace "(b)" with "(ii)." Leave the "(a)" and "(b)" in Figure P5.24 as thay are. There are two parts to the problem, part (i) and part (ii) and each of those parts needs to be considered once for (a) the n-channel MOSFET and once for (b) the p-channel MOSFET, a total of four things to consider.
            (Posted 10/25/2012.) 

Page 333, Problem 5.31
Add "in saturation" near the end of the first line of the problem statement so that the first line becomes,
"A particular MOSFET has VA = 50 V. For operation in saturation at"
            (Posted 10/12/2012.) 

Page 338, Problem 5.59.
In the first line of the problem statement delete the space between the number 2.5 and the "µp". Also, put the number in parenthesis. The first line then ends with this expression:
µnCox = (2.5)µpCox =
Better: just specify directly what is intended:
µnCox = 20 µA/V2,
µpCox = 8 µA/V2
Also see the errata on the answer to problem 5.59
(As printed µnCox = 2.5 µA/V is a correct reading but that was not the author's intention.)
Page 339, Problem 5.64 part (c)
Replace the phrase, "and disregarding the distortion caused by the MOSFET's square-law characteristic," with the phrase, "and by using equations valid for large signals," . . .
(The printed phrase is ambiguous. It has at least two equally valid interpretations. First, as the author intended, "disregard" meaning, "do not use a small-signal approximation to eliminate the distortion from the calculation, instead allow the distortion to be included in the calculation. Second, "disregard" meaning assume a linear approximation as if no distortion existed.)
Page 341, Problem 5.76.
Replace the first sentence with: "Model the NMOS amplifier shown in Fig. P5.76 using a T equivalent circuit, assuming λ = 0."

("Replace the transistor. . ." misleads students into thinking that the DC sources, VDD and VSS play a part in the solution. In the needed small-signal analysis those DC sources get set to zero or ground.)
Page 343, Problem 5.88.
In the first line of the problem statement change, "is cascade" to, "in cascade."
      (Posted 10/26/2010) 

Page 345, Problem D5.108.
Change, "see Appendix G" to "see Appendix H"
Also see the errata on the answer to problem D5.108
        (Updated, 11/02/2010.) 

Page 345, Problem D5.111 part (d).
Change "RG = 4.8 MΩ" to "RG = 4.7 MΩ."
        (Posted, 12/04/2010.) 

Page 346, Problem *5.114.
Add this sentence to the problem statement:
    "Assume the transistors have identical specifications."
Also see the additional note on this problem.

Page 402 and 403, Figures 6.34 and 6.35.
In Figure 6.34, in all four instances change the
annotations on the graph of "vBE =" to "iB =".

In Figure 6.35, in all three instances change the
annotations on the graph of "vBE =" to "iB =".
In the only instance of "VBE", change it to "IB".
(Figure 6.19 has introduced the industry-standard method of illustrating transistor characteristics. This method should continue to be used in the following sections of the chapter.)     (Posted 1/22/2011)
Page 569, Problem 7.2.
Add, "for both bias levels." to the last line of the problem statement so that the last line reads:

"voltage gain vo/vsig, for both bias levels."         (Posted 2/21/2011)

Page 576, Problem 7.41.
In the equation for Av change the "equals" sign (=) to an "approximately equal" (≈) sign.         (Posted 2/21/2011)

Page 668, Problem 8.11.
Change "vid = vG2 – vG1" to "vid = vG1 – vG2"

Also note that in one place the problem statement mentions "iD2/iD1" and in another place it is "iD1/iD2". That is not errata (but it could be confusing).
(The above correction makes the problem consistent with Eq. 8.15, the discussion associated with Fig. 8.5, and the answer posted in the back of the textbook.)
Also note minor errata on the answer to Problem 8.11.

Page 672, Problem D8.38.
Change "let the BJT beta be very large:" to
"let the BJT beta = 100:"
(Part d requires that beta = 100, so the formulae developed in parts a-c should include finite beta).
Also see errata on the answer to Problem D8.38

Page 792–793, Problem 9.64.
Delete the last sentence of the problem statement. (Miller's approximation and Miller's theorem are synonymous.)         (Posted 4/27/2011) 

Page 794, Problem *9.76.
Change part (b) by adding "beta = ∞" to the list of given values. Then the second line of part (b) will read: "for the case beta = ∞, Cπ = 14 pF, . . ."

Page 811, Bottom half of the page
The discussion of signal-to-interference ratio presented (as printed) is in terms of a voltage ratio. This is not a common practice in the industry. Usually the signal-to-interference ratio is defined as a power ratio. More generally, the signal-to-interference ratio is a special type of signal-to-noise ratio, which is also a power ratio. The following changes make the text conform to industry standard practice.

Change the second line under heading 10.2.3 by
adding the word "power" in two places so that the line reads:
    ". . .to increase the ratio of signal power to interferance power. However. . ."

Change the line just above Equation 10.14 by
adding the word "power" so that the line reads:
    "amplifier. The signal-to-noise power ratio for this amplifier is"

Change Equation 10.14 to     S/I = Vs2/Vn2

Change the line above Equation 10.16 by
adding the word "power" so that the line reads:
    "Thus the signal-to-noise power ratio at the output becomes"

Change Equation 10.16 to     

In the line below Equation 10.16 change, "which is A2 times higher" to,
"which is A22 times higher".

Page I-1, Answer to Problem 1.9.
Change the second instance of "157" to "106". Also fix the grammar: Just before the first instance of "a 157" add the word "with".

Page I-2, Answer to Problem 4.2 parts a and d
Some negative signs are missing from the textbook.
The answer for part (a) should be "–5.00 V; 1 mA."
The answer for part (d) should be "–5.00 V; 0 mA."
        (Posted 9/16/2010) 

Page I-2, Answer to Problem 4.9 part b
The answer should be "–1.00 V; 0 mA."

Page I-2, Answer to Problem 4.10
Correct answers are (a) 3.0 V; 0.15 mA (b) –0.5 V; 0 A

Page I-2, Answer to Problem 4.18
Change "0.345V" to "173 mV"     (Contributed by Alice, Posted 9/22/2010) 

Page I-2, Answer to Problem 4.68
Delete "0.13;"     (Posted 9/28/2010) 

Page I-2, Answer to Problem 4.70.
Change "94.8%" to "47.4%."
(Alternatively, change the question. Specifically change, "For what fraction of a cycle does each diode conduct?" to, "For what fraction of a cycle is there conduction through the load?" Answer: 94.7%)
Page I-2, Answer to Problem 5.59 (b) is inaccurate.
Change "4.6 μA" "to 4.5 μA".  Students should express answers to part (b) that are accurate to at least 3 significant figures—one more than given in this answer key. Also see errata on the problem statement for 5.59.

Page I-2, Answer to Problem D5.108 Part (b) is wrong.
The correct answer for part b is 0.199 mA.
    (Increasing RD cannot increase the current!)
Also see errata on the problem statement for D5.108.

Page I-2, Answer to Problem 6.1.
Some of the given answers are incorrect, and there are too many answers. The correct answers are:
6.1 active; saturaton; active; saturation; active; cutoff.

Page I-3, Answer to Problem 6.28 part (d)
Change "0.35 V" to "–4.475 V"
Also note that not all answers to this problem are given here. The authors' intent was only to give "selected" answers.

Page I-3, Answers to Problems in Chapter 6 numbered 6.43 and up.
If your textbook shows an answer to problem 6.70, you have an early printing of the textbook. In this case, delete the answer to Problem 6.70. (This was problem 5.54 in the fifth edition, but it is now deleted from this edition of the textbook.)

After making the above change, in the list of answers on page I-3, change problem number 6.43 (in blue type) to 6.44. Similarly, add one to all the remaining Chapter 6 problem numbers except change 6.152 to 6.154. Also note that the list is not in numeric order. A corrected list in proper order to replace the Chapter 6 answers (in the first printing at least) is shown here:

Page 45 Problem 1.24 
An equivalent problem (Implying the same questions and giving the same answer) is as follows:

Suppose a temperature sensor is at a temperature of T degrees centigrade. At this temperature and without the load resistance connected, an ideal voltmeter shows the output voltage to be V millivolts. A 10 kΩ load resistance is now connected but the temperature is not changed. The terminal voltage of the sensor is reduced to V – 10 millivolts. Now the temperature is increased until the terminal voltage returns to V millivolts. It is observed that the temperature was increased 10 degrees centigrade to accomplish this. Now the load is disconnected but the temperature is held constant at the elevated amount of T + 10 degrees centigrade. The output of the sensor is now V + 20 millivolts. What is the source resistance of the sensor?

Page 112 Problem D2.34 part (b)
The output resistance of the "current amplifier" is requested. The variable vodesignates the output of the "operational amplifier" which is confusingly, not the output of the "current amplifier." The output of the "current amplifier" is found at the two terminals of RL.

Add label VL under RL and polarity marks "+" and "–" on either side with the "+" on the left. Then the output of the "current amplifier" is at the two terminals marked by these new polarity marks. Resistor RL is the load on the "current amplifier."

To find the output resistance of the "current amplifier," replace RL by a test source,Vx such that VL = Vx. Then, with the input of the "current amplifier" zeroed (iI = 0 or open) find iL in terms of VL. Then the output resistance is Ro = VL/iL. See text page 27 for the basic theory. Note that for a current amplifier, a zero input is an open. (Whereas, for a voltage amplifier a zero input is a connection to ground.)

Page 118. Problem *2.77 and Figure P2.77
The two resistors connected to the non-inverting ("+") inputs of the op-amps are not the optimal values. For this circuit, the non-inverting input of the top op-amp should be connected to node A through a 6.67 kohm resistor. The non-inverting input of the bottom op-amp should be connected to ground through a 7.5 kohmresistor. The assumption of an "ideal" op-amp makes these resistors unimportant to the operation of the circuit, no matter what their values are. If the op-amps are not ideal, these two resistors reduce the effect of input bias currents. If this makes no sense to you and you are further interested, ask professor De Boer about it.

Page 120. Problem D**2.93
For stylistic consistency, in the denominator of the equation the second instance ofj could be inside the parenthesis. The complete denominator is then
[1 + (ω1/jω)][1 + (/ω2)]
Either way, the equation means the same thing.

Page 192 Example 4.7
In the statement of the example problem VZ = 6.8 V at IZ = 5 mA is given. This does not mean that the actual diode current, labeled in blue as "IZ" on the figure, is necessarily 5 mA. It only means that if IZ is 5 mA then VZ will be 6.8 V.
(In the figure, in both parts (a) and (b), VO = VZ.

Page 226 Problem 4.76
Here is the question stated in one piece, with errata corrected:

4.76 Let the full-wave rectifier circuit shown in Figure 4.22 (page 198) operate from a 120 V (rms) 60 Hz residential supply line. Let the transformer have a 5:1 (step down) turns ratio. (For each half of the secondary then the turns ratio is 10:1.) Let the diodes be silicon diodes that can be modeled to have a 0.7 V drop for any forward current. Let the load resistor be 1 kΩ. Augment this rectifier circuit with a capacitor chosen to provide peak-to-peak ripple voltage of
(i) 10% of the peak output and
(ii) 1% of the peak output. In each case:

a.) What average output voltage results?
b.) For what fraction of a cycle is there conduction through the rectifier?
c.) What is the average current through each diode during conduction?
d.) What is the peak current through each diode?

Note: a "rectifier" is a diode or—in this case—a set of diodes used to convert alternating current to direct current.Also see above for errata on this problem.

(The original problem statement refers to problem 4.69 and 4.75. Problem 4.75 refers to Problem 4.68. Problem 4.68 refers by name (not by figure number) to Figure 4.21, but students are supposed to substitute figure 4.22 because problem 4.69 refers to that by name and by way of superceding problem 4.68. Students have a hard time understanding the question!)     (updated 10/21/2010)

Here is the question stated in one piece, with errata corrected:

4.77 Let the bridge rectifier circuit shown in Figure 4.23 (page 199) operate from a 120 V (rms) 60 Hz residential supply line. Let the transformer have a 10:1 (step down) turns ratio. Let the diodes be silicon diodes that can be modeled to have a 0.7 V drop for any forward current. Let the load resistor be 1 kΩ. Augment this rectifier circuit with a capacitor chosen to provide peak-to-peak ripple voltage of
(i) 10% of the peak output and
(ii) 1% of the peak output. In each case:

a.) What average output voltage results?
b.) For what fraction of a cycle is there conduction through the secondary
     winding of the transformer?
c.) What is the average current through each diode during conduction?
d.) What is the peak current through each diode?

Page 346, Problem 5.114.
The "50-ohm coaxial cable" is just a wire with a shield around it. Specifically, the resistance from one end of the cable to the other is ZERO. The reisistance from the drain of Q1 to the source of Q2 is 0 ohms.

However, the cable is long enough so that it takes a noticable amount of time for a signal to travel through the cable (or wire). Because of this propagation time, the cable works better when the load on the cable is of the specific value for which the cable is designed. This cable is designed for a 50 ohm load, thus it is called a "50 ohmscable," but just as for a wire, the resistance of the cable from end-to-end is (practically) zero. Thus the goal of the problem is to make Ri2, the resistance looking into the source of Q2, be 50 ohms so that the cable works as well as possible with respect to transferring high-bandwidth (fast) signals.

Also see errata on problem *5.114.

Page 347, Problem 5.117.
This problem makes reference to Figure 5.60(a) (page 321) and Exercise 5.41 (page 322). Exercise 5.41 refers to Figure E5.37 (page 315.) Figure 5.37 cannot be understood apart from Exercise 5.37 (also on page 315.) Asking students to ferret through all this just to gain given information for the problem is a waste of their time. Here is the problem restated with all the given information included.

*5.117 In this problem we investigate the large-signal operation of the source follower of Fig. 5.60(a). Specifically, consider the situation when negative input signals are applied. Let the negative signal voltage at the output be –V. The current in RL will flow away from ground and will have a value of V/RL. This current will subtract from the bias current I, resulting in a transistor source (and drain) current of (I – V/RL). One can use this current value to determine vGS. Now, the signal at the transistor source terminal will be
vo = –V superimposed on the dc bias voltage, which is –VGS (corresponding to a drain current of I). We can thus find the signal voltage at the gate, vi. In Figure 5.60(a), let I = 0.5 mA, k'n(W/L) = 1 mA/V2RL = 15 kΩ and ignore the Early effect. Note that this bias situation is similar to that used in Exercises 5.37 on page 315 and Excercise 5.41 on apge 321. For this circuit, find vi if vo = –1. Repeat for vo = –5,   vo = –6, and vo = –7. At each output voltage, find the large signal gain, vo/vi and compare to the small signal value, Av found in Excercise 5.41 (page 322). What is the largest possible negative-output signal?

Page 473, Problem D6.65.
The problem should be re-worded as follows:

    D 6.65 Consider the pnp transistor in the circuit of Fig. P6.65.
    a.) If the transistor has β = 50, find the value for RC to obtain VC = +3 V.
    b.) Using the value for RC found in part (a), what happens if the
          transistor is replaced with one having β = 100?

Also note the errata on the answer in the back of the book.

(The problem as stated in the textbook leads most students to simply repeat part (a) with
β = 100 to find a new value for RC. This is not the author's intent nor is it an interesting problem.)     (Posted 1/20/2011)


Page 584, Problem 7.95.
For the BJT transistor assume beta is infinite. For both the MOSFET and the BJT ignore the Early effect.

Pages 826, 828, Figures 10.14, and 10.15.
In parts b and c of Figure 10.14, the circuit element h22 has units of conductance (siemens). The actual resistance is (1/h22ohms. In part (c) of Figure 1.14 h22 is shown in parallel with RL. Then in Figure 10.15 this same conductance is shown instead as a resistance, R22. This is not a miss-print since conductors and resistors share the same symbol. It is just a matter of notation. Remember that R22 = 1/h22.
