CHAP3: MOS Field-EffectTransistors (MOSFETs)
Similarities:• Amplifiers• Switching devices• Impedance matching circuitsDifferences:• FETs are voltage controlled devices. BJTs are current controlleddevices.• FETs have a higher input impedance. BJTs have higher gains.• FETs are less sensitive to temperature variations and are more easily integrated on ICs.• FETs are generally more static sensitive than BJTs.
FETs vs. BJTs
FET Types•JFET: Junction FET•MOSFET: Metal–Oxide–Semiconductor FET
D-MOSFET: Depletion MOSFETE-MOSFET: Enhancement MOSFET
FET Operating CharacteristicsJFET operation can be compared to a water spigot.
The source of water pressure is the accumulation of electrons at the negative pole of the drain-source voltage.The drain of water is the electron deficiency (or holes) at the positive pole of the applied voltage.The control of flow of water is the gate voltage that controls the width of the n-channel and, therefore, the flow of charges from source todrain.
FET Operation: The Basic IdeaThere are three basic operating conditions for a JFET:
• VGS = 0, VDS increasing to some positive value• VGS < 0, VDS at some positive value• Voltage-controlled resistor
FET ( Field Effect Transistor)
1. Unipolar device i. e. operation depends on only one type of charge carriers (h or e)
2. Voltage controlled Device (gate voltage controls drain current)
3. Very high input impedance (109-1012 )4. Source and drain are interchangeable in most Low-frequency
applications
5. Low Voltage Low Current Operation is possible (Low-power consumption)
6. Less Noisy as Compared to BJT7. No minority carrier storage (Turn off is faster) 8. Self limiting device9. Very small in size, occupies very small space in ICs10. Low voltage low current operation is possible in MOSFETS 11. Zero temperature drift of out put is possible
Few important advantages of FET over conventional Transistors

Figure Physical structure of the enhancement-type NMOS transistor: (a) perspective view; (b) cross-section. Typically L = 0.1 to 3 mm, W = 0.2 to 100 mm, and the thickness of the oxide layer (tox) is in the range of 2 to 50 nm.
Fundamentals of FET
7
Figure The enhancement-type NMOS transistor with a positive voltage applied to the gate. An n channel is induced at the top of the substrate beneath the gate.
8
Figure An NMOS transistor with vGS > Vt and with a small vDS applied. The device acts as a resistance whose value is determined by vGS. Specifically, the channel conductance is proportional to vGS – Vt’ and thus iD is proportional to (vGS – Vt) vDS. Note that the depletion region is not shown (for simplicity).
9
Figure The iD–vDS characteristics of the MOSFET in Fig. 4.3 when the voltage applied between drain and source, vDS, is kept small. The device operates as a linear
resistor whose value is controlled by vGS.
10
Figure Operation of the enhancement NMOS transistor as vDS is increased. The induced channel acquires a tapered shape, and its resistance increases as vDS is increased. Here, vGS is kept constant at a value > Vt.
11
Figure The drain current iD versus the drain-to-source voltage vDS for an enhancement-type NMOS transistor operated with vGS > Vt.
12
Figure: Increasing vDS causes the channel to acquire a tapered shape. Eventually, as vDS reaches vGS – Vt’ the channel is pinched off at the drain end. Increasing vDS above vGS – Vt
has little effect (theoretically, no effect) on the channel’s shape.

Biasing Circuits used for JFET
Just as we learned that the BJT must be biased for proper
operation, the JFET also must be biased for operation point
(ID, VGS, VDS)
In most cases the ideal Q-point will be at the middle of the
transfer characteristic curve, which is about half of the IDSS.

• Replace VGS = -VGG in Shockley’s Eq. ,therefore:
