).6.
Potentiometer.7.
Project board.8.
Coupling wires.9.
Digital multimeter (DMM).10.
Capacitors (10µF).
Theory:
Because the FET is voltage controlled device, the ac equivalent circuit of it must contain avoltage controlled current source.There is special parameter of FETs called transconductance factor (
g
m
) and it is the slope of the transfer characteristics at the point of operation; it is represented in siemens [S] which isequivalent to (
Ω
-1
).JFET voltage-divider circuit is shown in Figure 9-1.Figure 9-1This circuit is called voltage divider bypassed self-bias circuit.The ac equivalent circuit is shown in Figure 9-2.
