Sometimes it is necessary to discharge batteries before recharging. To do this, an electronic load can be used. A high-power electronic load is shown in Figure P11.21, for the battery discharge application. With K = 4 A/V2, Vt = 3 V, and VG = 8 V, determine the discharging current ID and the required MOSFET power rating.
