B. MultiSim Simulation
1. Enter the circuit as shown in Figure 1 using 2N5454 JFET in MultiSim. Set the DC source for a
VDD of +12V. Connect the signal source Vin to a function generator with sine-wave mode
selected. For now make sure the input voltage is set for zero. A typical MultiSim circuit is
shown below.

2. Measure the DC voltages as listed in Table 1 above and enter the measured values in Table 1 on
the worksheet.
3. Connect Vin to one channel of the oscilloscope and V out to the second channel of the
oscilloscope. Adjust the signal source at Vin to be a signal of 1 kHz at 0.5 V Pp. Capture the input
and output waveforms using print screen and insert them on the worksheet with proper
caption. A typical scope display is shown below.
Answer the following questions on the worksheet.
4. Reduce the setting of the DC source (V DD) to +9V as shown below. Note that if the peak of the
waveform at Vout is clipped; reduce the input signal level until the clipping effect is no longer
apparent. Capture the input and output waveforms using print screen and insert it on the
worksheet with proper caption.
Answer the following questions on the worksheet.
