Question

Consider the following circuit. Given that VDD = 15V, VP = 2V, and IDS = 3mA, to bias the circuit properly, select the proper statement. A)rd < 6k? B)rd > 6k? C)rd > 4k? D)rd < 4k?

The correct answer is A because the drain current is 3mA and the saturation voltage is 2V, so the drain resistor should be less than 6kΩ to ensure that the transistor is in saturation.
