What is Single Stage Transistor Amplifier? - Circuit Diagram and its Workings When only one transistor with associated circuit is used for increasing the strength of a weak signal, the…
Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS): With active load switching, the current drain with a low output is approximately equal to ID(sat). This may cause a problem with battery operated equipment.…
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…
Applications of FETs (Field Effect Transistors): Applications of FETs - FET has a very high input impedance (100 MΩ in case of JFETs and 104 to 109 MΩ in case of…
FET Biasing Methods - Fixed Bias, Self Bias, Potential Divider Bias and Current Source Bias: Unlike BJTs, thermal runaway does not occur with FETs. However, the wide differences in maximum…
Self Bias or Potential Divider Bias Circuit: This is the most commonly used biasing arrangement. The arrangement of Self Bias or Potential Divider Bias Circuit is shown in Fig. 12.17…
Crystal Oscillators - Circuit, Working, Advantages and Disadvantages: In crystal oscillators, the usual electrical resonant circuit is replaced by a mechanically vibrating crystal. The crystal (usually quartz) has a high…
Pulse Characteristics and Terminology: For describing the output of pulse generators and the applications in which they are used, the introduction of terminology associated with the pulses is very important.…
