Both transistors shown in the figure below have K = 100μA/V2 and Vto = 0.5 V. Determine the value of R needed so that iD1 = 0.2 mA. (a) For what range of Vx is the second transistor operating in the saturation region? (b) What is the resulting value of iD2 ? (c) Provided that Vx is large enough so that the second transistor operates in saturation, to what ideal circuit element is the transistor equivalent?
