In summary, an NMOS transistor with k_n= 400e-6A/V^2 and V_t = 0.4 V is required to function as a variable resistor with a range of 200 ohms to 1 k ohms. To achieve this, the control voltage V_GS must range from 0.4V to 1.8V and the transistor width W must be 10800 μm, utilizing the minimum channel length of 0.18e-6 m and a maximum allowed voltage of 1.8 V.

1. An NMOS transistor fabocated in a technology for
which k_n= 400e-6A/V^2 and V_t = 0.4 V is required to operate
with a small v_DS as a variable resistor ranging In value from
200 ohms to 1 k ohms. Specify the range required for the control voltage
V_GS and the required transistor width W. It is required to
use the smallest possible device, as limited by the minimum
channel length of this technology (L_min = 0.18e-6 m) and the
maximum allowed voltage of 1.8 V.

.V_GS = 0.4V to 1.8VW = (1/400e-6A/V^2)*(V_GS - 0.4V)*(L_min) = (1/400e-6A/V^2)*(1.8V - 0.4V)*(0.18e-6m) = 10800 μm
