Design of Depletion Type N Channel Mosfet Biasing Circuit
Design D type MOSFET self-biasing circuit to achieve Q – Point of VDSQ, VGSQ and IDQ employing N-
channel MOSFET. Also draw neatly the designed circuit with standard component values. For NMOS D
type: Vp & IDSS will be given.
To maintain high input resistance or input impedance (Ri or Zi) gate resistor (RG) has to be kept extremely
high in order to prevent or minimize the loading effects. Hence select the nearest highest value of the gate
resistor (RG) which is RG = 1 MΩ.
For the MOSFET self-biasing circuit, applying KVL in the gate-to-source loop :-

The gate-to-source voltage (VGS) can be easily calculated from Equation 2:-
Calculate VGS from (2) & substitute it in (1) to obtain the value of the source resistor (RS).
