Hey guys, I have a question relating to the use of the resistor in the attachment. The attachment depicts a basic sample and hold circuit.
According to the lecturer, the addition of the resistor is to allow the capacitor to discharge quickly. I just dont see how this occurs, or how this is a useful thing to do. A JFET's gate input controls the amount of current which can flow from the source to the drain. Does the addition of this resistor allow more current to flow from the drain to the source through the source?
