Analog Systems Problem Set 1 Solutions

The document contains a problem set on analog systems with 3 problems. Problem 1 discusses using a voltage controlled voltage source (VCVS) with a large but uncertain gain inside a negative feedback loop. It asks to determine the input resistance, gain, and output resistance of the circuit under different conditions. Problem 2 discusses using a voltage controlled current source (VCCS) with a large transconductance inside negative feedback. It asks similar analysis and calculations as Problem 1. Problem 3 asks to design the circuits from Problems 1 and 2 in LTSpice and perform simulations to analyze gain under different parameters.
