A CS JFET amplifier has a load resistance of 10 kO , RD= 820O . If gm= 5mS and Vin= 500 mV, the output signal voltage is__________________?

Correct answer: D. 1.89 V

  • A. 2.05 V
  • B. 25 V
  • C. 0.5 V
  • D. 1.89 V

Explanation

The effective drain load is 820 Ω || 10 kΩ ≈ 758 Ω, so Av ≈ gm(RD || RL) = 0.005 × 758 ≈ 3.79. Multiplying by 0.5 V gives an output of about 1.89 V.
