7. [20%] The circuit below is a BJT differential amplifier with $V_{CC} = V_{EE} = 3 V$. The DC current source $I_{EE}$ is assumed ideal. The two transistors are identical, operate in the active region, and have $alpha = 0.99$ and $V_A = infty$. The thermal voltage $V_T$ is 26 mV at room temperature. The input is purely differential, i.e., $V_{ip} = -V_{im} = V_{id}/2$. a) Draw small-signal differential-mode half circuits of the differential amplifier. (5%) b) Express the differential voltage gain $A_d$, which is defined as $(V_{op} - V_{om})/V_{id}$, in terms of $I_{EE}$, $R_L$, $alpha$ and $V_T$. (6%) c) If $I_{EE} = 2mA$, what should be the value of $R_L$ to achieve $A_d = 40$? (4%) d) Choose another set of $I_{EE}$ and $R_L$ to maintain $A_d = 40$ while reducing the power consumption by half compared to the situation in part c). (2%) e) What is the maximum $A_d$ that the circuit can achieve if the DC levels at the output nodes $V_{op}$ and $V_{om}$ must be equal to or higher than 0V? (3%)

An electric vehicle is being designed that uses a 7 HP alternating current electric motor for its propulsion due to its low cost and high performance. Because it is an alternating current motor, it rotates linearly depending on the frequency of the supply current, that is, when it is fed with 60 Hz the motor rotates at 3600 RPM. In order to vary the motor speed, a frequency inverter is required that has a range of 10 Hz to 90 Hz and a voltage variation of 50 VAC RMS to 120 VAC RMS. The voltage reference will be obtained from a DAC inside a microcontroller, having a maximum voltage at the output of 5 Vpp. Power is from a bank of 14 13.5 Volt Li-Ion batteries. Transistors for the problem: MJ15003, MJ15004, MJ802, 2N3055, MJ2955, MJ15015, MJ15016, MJE15028, MJE15029, MJE15032, MJE15033.
