4. MOSFET
• A field effect transistor (FET) that can be
operated in the enhancement-mode is called a
MOSFET.
• There are 4 terminals : source (S), gate (G) and
drain (D), Substrate (SS).

19. Enhancement MOSFET
• Primary difference
between depletion-
type and
enhancement-type is
the absence of channel
between Source and
Drain terminals.

20. Enhancement Type
• No channel region
exists between the
Drain and Source
• “Invert” the region
between the Drain
and Source to
induce a channel

25. E-MOSFET Feedback Biasing
IG=0 V, VD=VG, VDS=VGS, VDS=VDD-IDRD, VGS=VDD-IDRD
When ID=0 A:
VGS=VDD
When VGS=0 V:
ID=VDD/RD 25
26. Applications of MOSFET
• Digital integrated circuits such as microprocessors
and memory devices contain thousands to
millions of integrated MOSFET
• logic gates and data storage
• Switch mode power supplies,
• Variable frequency drives
• Radio systems use MOSFETs as oscillators, or
mixers to convert frequencies.
• Sound reinforcement and
• Automobile sound systems

30. JEFT vs MOSFET
JEFT MOSFET
1. High input impedance 1. Very high input impedance
2. It can be operated only in depletion
mode.
2. It can be operated both depletion and
enhancement mode.
3. High gate current 3. Low gate current
4. High drain resistance 4. Low drain resistance
5. Conductivity is controlled by the
reverse biasing of the gate
5. Conductivity is controlled by the
carriers induced in the channel
