a. Determine VDS for VGS = 0 V and ID = 6 mA using the characteristics of Fig. 6.11


b. Using the results of part (a), calculate the resistance of the JFET for the region ID = 0 to 6 mA for VGS= 0V.


c. Determine VDS for VGS = −1V and ID = 3 mA.


d. Using the results of part (c), calculate the resistance of the JFET for the region ID = 0 to 3 mA for VGS = −1V.


e. Determine VDS for VGS = −2 V and ID = 1.5 mA.


f. Using the results of part (e), calculate the resistance of the JFET for the region ID = 0 to 1.5 mA for VGS = −2V.


g. Defining the result of part (b) as ro, determine the resistance for VGS = −1 V using Eq. (6.1) and compare with the results of part (d).


h. Defining the result of part (b) as ro, determine the resistance for VGS = −2 V using the same equation, and compare the results with part (f).


i. Based on the results of parts (g) and (h), does Eq. 6.1, appear to be a valid approximation?
