// find value of Rd for the MOSFET // Electronic Principles // By Albert Malvino , David Bates // Seventh Edition // The McGraw-Hill Companies // Example 14-14, page 507 clear; clc; close; // Given data Idon=3*10^-3;// from the data sheet of the E-MOSFET in amperes Vdson=10;// from data sheet of the E-MOSFET in volts Vdd=25 ;// drain cutoff voltage in volts // Calculations Rd=(Vdd-Vdson)/Idon ;// Rd in ohms disp("ohms",Rd,"resistance=") // Result // A resistance of 5kohms will allow the MOSFET to operate at a specified Q point.
