The output voltage of this circuit should be a sinusoidal waveform of the same frequency as the input.

Determine the quiescent value of VD and VOUT V DD =5V R 3 =100K V D M 1 C 1 VIN(t)=VMsin(ωt+θ) R 1 =20K R 4 =50K R 2 =20K C 2 V SS =-2V Problem 12 (Counts as two problems) Using a hardware description language of your choice (Verilog, VHDL), design a serial to parallel converter. The converter should take in an 8 bit serial input and output an 8 bit parallel result, to be stored in a register file. Assume the serial input arrives prior to to each rising clock edge from a microcontroller using the same clock signal. Thus, a new bit of serial data is available on each clock pulse to be stored in the register file. In addition to the serial input and clock cycle, two other inputs should be available to the system as well. The first input is a reset, which when enabled will set the values in the register file to 0. The second input is a conversion enable, which when set high, the parallel register will be loaded with ones. When set low, the system resumes normal operation. When writing the test bench, assume the clock period is 10ns. Please submit the module code, test bench code, and simulation waveform to receive full credit. Page 8
