The cathode, or bias resistor appears in series with the plate, or load resistor.
2.
This current is divided three ways : to the feedback network, to the bias resistor " R"
3.
Efficient rapid single flux quantum ( ERSFQ ) logic was developed to eliminate the static power losses of RSFQ by replacing bias resistors with sets of inductors and current-limiting Josephson junctions.
4.
For example, a 1K bias resistor will have virtually no effect if the load impedance is at least 100K . These values were, in fact, used by Leo Fender in many of his guitar amplifier designs.
