There is a graph called base emmiter on vs collector current. Is taht the one i look at? In order to get 1ma @ 25C i would need a ~.68V at the base correct? If i wanted 10ma, i would need ~.72V . So if i set my R2 resistor @ 1A to drop .6V, i should be getting 0.1mA would i not?
Yes. And then you would need to change R1 to give 3.1V across it at 0.1mA.
Also, is the method i chose before correct. By looking at the FET specs and looking what type of output current is given for a given gate voltage? On some of the FETS i was considering (power mosfets), the graphs they give do not typically show the region of 1A. If they do show it, it is at the leftmost part of the graph and its hard to read what type of Voltage i need. Do you have any suggestions on how to get an accurate voltage i need to apply to the gate for it to output 1A? Are there emperical equations that you can use to calculate it rather than trying to read it from a small graph?
