If a MOSFET is to be used in the making of an amplifier then it must work in
Only in the saturation region a MOSFET can operate as an amplifier.
For MOSFET is to be used as a switch then it must operate in
In both regions it can perform the task of a switch.
(Q.3 & Q.4) Using the circuit shown below,
Q. Determine the conditions in which the MOSFET is operating in the triode region.
i. VGD > Vt (Threshold voltage)
ii. VDS > VOV
iii. ID ∝ (VOV – 0.5VDS)VDS
Only the points I and iii are correct and ii is false.
Determine the conditions in which the MOSFET is operating in the saturation region
i. VGD > Vt (Threshold voltage)
ii. VDS > VOV
iii. ID ∝ (VOV)2
i is false and ii and iii are true.
In the saturation region of the MOSFET the saturation current is
Saturation current does not depends on the voltage difference between the source and the drain in the saturation region of a MOSFET.
An n-channel MOSFET operating with VOV=0.5V exhibits a linear resistance = 1 kΩ when VDS is very small. What is the value of the device transconductance parameter kn?
Use the standard mathematical expression to determine the value of kn.
An NMOS transistor is operating at the edge of saturation with an overdrive voltage VOV and a drain current ID. If is VOV is doubled, and we must maintain operation at the edge of saturation, what value of drain current results?
I0 is directly proportional to VOS.
