Question
The image shows an NMOS transistor circuit with the following configuration:

- A +20 V power supply connected through a resistor \( R_D \).
- A 10 MΩ resistor connected to the gate.
- A 6 kΩ resistor connected from the source to ground.

The text below the circuit describes the NMOS transistor parameters and the task:

**Parameters:**
- Threshold voltage, \( V_{tn} = 1 \, \text{V} \)
- Transconductance parameter, \( k_n' (W/L) = 0.025 \, \text{mA/V}^2 \)

**Objective:**
Determine the value of \( R_D \) needed to set \( V_{DS} = 10 \, \text{V} \).

**Circuit Explanation:**
The circuit depicts an NMOS transistor operating in the saturation region. The 10 MΩ resistor biases the gate, and the 6 kΩ resistor is the source resistor. The drain is connected to the +20 V supply through \( R_D \). The goal is to calculate \( R_D \) so that the voltage across the drain and source (\( V_{DS} \)) is 10 V.
