Explain The Three Regions Of Operation Of A Mosfet? |
|
Answer» Cut-off region: When VGS < VT, no CHANNEL is induced and the MOSFET will be in cut-off region. No CURRENT flows. Triode region: When VGS ≥ Vt, a channel will be induced and current starts flowing if VDS > 0. MOSFET will be in triode region as long as VDS < VGS - Vt. Saturation region: When VGS ≥ Vt, and VDS ≥ VGS - Vt, the channel will be in saturation mode, where the current value saturates. There will be little or no effect on MOSFET when VDS is further INCREASED. Cut-off region: When VGS < Vt, no channel is induced and the MOSFET will be in cut-off region. No current flows. Triode region: When VGS ≥ Vt, a channel will be induced and current starts flowing if VDS > 0. MOSFET will be in triode region as long as VDS < VGS - Vt. Saturation region: When VGS ≥ Vt, and VDS ≥ VGS - Vt, the channel will be in saturation mode, where the current value saturates. There will be little or no effect on MOSFET when VDS is further increased. |
