  1. The parameters of an FET are gm = 3 mA/V, id = 30 k. RL = 3 k as a source follower load. The output impedance is given by—
    1. 333 ohm
    2. 3 k ohm
    3. 27 k ohm
    4. 300 ohm
Correct Option: D

Given that, gm = 3 mA/V, rd = 30 k, RL = 3 k, R0 =?
We know that

R0 =
R'L
1 + gmR'L

in the case of source follower Where, R′L = RL || rd = 3 k || 30 k
=
3 × 30
≈ 3 k.
3 + 30

Now, R0 =
3000
1 + 3 × 10–3 × 3000

=
3000
=
3000
= 300 Ω
1 + 3 × 310

Hence alternative (D) is the correct answer.
