        FIGURE 2.5 An equivalent circuit
        used to compute the minimum
        allowable load resistor.



               More specifically,













                    The value of i F can also be computed using Ohm's Law, Equation (2.18),












               Kirchhoff's Current Law can now be used to determine the value of load current (f L).







               Calculations for the present example are shown below:








                    Using Ohm's Law, Equation (2.19), we can now compute the value of R L.
