Graphical Method of Finding Operating point/ Q-point

Fig 1 Circuit
Fig 2 Characteristic curve

Now draw load line: Load line comes from KVL equation

   ID = (V1-VD) / R1 ...equation 1

  put  ID=0   in equation 1

equation 1  becomes VD=V1=10 (eqA)

Now put VD=0 in equation 1

  equation 1 becomes  ID= V1/1000

  ID = 10mA ( eqB)

Mark  ID=10mA  and  VD=10V  on the characteristic curve and join these two points.

  1. good explanation.
    how does write the trace expression formula [20e - 3-v1(D1)2e-3]?

    1. You can trace that function using Matlab or simply simulate the circuit on Proteus or LTSpice.
