A JFET circuit has VDD = 24V, RD = 10kΩ with IDSS = 20mA and VP = -6V. What is ID when VGS = -3V? Calculate VDS.
💡 Hint: Make sure to analyze if the JFET remains in the active region.
Design a circuit using fixed bias for a JFET with IF (IDSS) = 15mA, VP = -4V, and demonstrate through calculations whether it maintains the desired current for VGS = -2.5V.
💡 Hint: Use the appropriate parameters in Shockley’s equation for this.
