What is MOSFET Handling? What is MOSFET Handling? - MOSFET requires very careful handling particularly when out of circuit. In circuit, a MOSFET is as rugged as any other solid-state…
N Channel Power MOSFETs or V-MOSFET or V-FET: N Channel Power MOSFETs - Power MOSFETs are usually constructed in V-configuration, as shown in Fig. 13.94. That is why, the device is…
Depletion Type MOSFET - Construction, Operation and Characteristics: As we know already that when the gate is biased negative w.r.t. the source in an N-channel JFET, the depletion-region widths are…
Common Drain JFET Amplifier or Source Follower: In the Common Drain JFET Amplifier circuit (also called the source follower), the output voltage is developed across source resistor RS. External load…
Various Bias Compensation Methods: During the discussion made for various biasing methods for providing stability to the operating point we have seen that self bias (or potential divider bias) and…
Negative Resistance Oscillators - Working and Types: Negative resistance oscillators make use of negative resistance elements such as tetrodes, tunnel diodes, unijunction transistors etc. There are two types of negative…
Tuned Base Oscillator - Definition and Working Principle: When a parallel tuned L-C circuit is placed in the base-to-ground circuit, the oscillator is known as the tuned base oscillator. The…
Three Phase Rectifiers: Three-Phase Half-Wave Rectifier : Figure 9.11 illustrates a circuit for a 3-phase half-wave rectifier. The three diodes are connected to the three phases of a 3-phase transformer…
