Question 1

What happens to ID in the saturation region?

  • It decreases
  • It remains constant
  • It increases continuously

💡 Hint: Think about how amplifiers work at their optimal performance level.

Question 2

True or False: The cut-off region is when the gate-source voltage is sufficient to allow current to flow.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the definition of cut-off in relation to VGS.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A JFET has IDSS of 15 mA and VGS(off) of -4V. Calculate the drain current (ID) when VGS is -2V using Shockley's equation. Discuss how this affects possible applications.

💡 Hint: Consider substituting the values carefully into the equation and interpreting the results within practical contexts.

Question 2

Design a JFET amplifier circuit that operates in the saturation region. Define key parameters needed to achieve stable amplification.

💡 Hint: Think about common values for ID and VGS and how they influence your circuit's performance.
