N−Channel <strong>and</strong> P−Channel JFETsLike in bipolar transistors, one important parameter in FETs is its transconductance g mdefined asthe ratio of the change in current i DS to the change of voltage v GS which produced it. In otherwords,g m=∂i DS-----------∂v GSv DS = constant(4.1)Example 4.1Figure 4.5 shows a common−source N−channel JFET amplifier circuit <strong>and</strong> Table 4.1 shows severalvalues of the current corresponding to the voltage .i DSv GSR +D 1 KΩ15 V −D+vGout−+v i in DS−SV DDFigure 4.5.
