Frequently Asked Questions on MOSFET
What is active device?
Any type of device which has the ability to control the flow of electrons is called as active device. Eg-BJT, MOSFET, etc.
Why do we use SiO2 in MOSFET?
We use thin layer of SiO2 because we want the control over surface by gate electrode.
What do you mean by the term inversion?
Changing n type into p type by making gate terminal more positive with respect to substrate or body terminal.
What is MOSFET?
In the world of electronics, you all must have heard the term Transistor in your life at least once. But have you ever thought about what are transistors? How do they work? What are the types of transistors? So today you will get the answer to all such questions. In this article, we will understand about the device MOSFET and its characteristics. But before that let me clear the term transistor.
So a transistor is a type of semiconductor device that is used to maintain and regulate the voltage and current level. It has the functions of a switch and an amplifier. You might be thinking about what is the need to study transistors. This is because it is one of the essential components in most of the electronic devices present today. We cannot imagine this world of technology without transistors.
