The n-channel JFET, the pinch off voltage is ______________(a) not greater than 0(b) greater than or equal to 0(c) less than or equal to 0(d) not less than 0This question was posed to me during an internship interview.The question is from Characteristics of JFET topic in chapter FET Amplifiers of Analog Circuits

Answer»

The CORRECT ANSWER is (a) not GREATER than 0

To elaborate: The pinch off voltage for an N-channel JFET is NEGATIVE. The depletion region would extend into the N-channel if the reverse bias in the GATE to source voltage increases which means that the gate to source voltage has to be negative since the gate is N-type.
