Need some help.
Can't find any info in my notes about this.

Usual circuit, 2 coupling capacitors, 1 de-coupling capacitor, N-channel mosfet, and 3 resistor, gate, source and drain resisitors.

1) I have to explain the effects of the drain voltage during its positive and negative half cycles, when the input is supplied as a sinusoidal wave.

Can I just apply my knowledge of common source amplifiers using a NPN transistor, would it be similiar?

2) Given the transconductance, Gm = 3.3 mS, calculate the output voltage pk to pk for a sinusoidal input voltage of 1V pk to pk..

Not sure if anyone has any knowledge of this, but would be very helpful.. :)
