Question 1.
What is the threshold voltage of a MOSFET?
Show hintHide hint
Remember the term threshold relates to the 'minimum' needed.
Question 2.
Define transconductance.
Show hintHide hint
Think about how voltage change affects current in a device.
3Question 3.
What does an increase in gate voltage above threshold voltage do?
- Decreases output
- Increases output
- Has no effect
Show hintHide hint
Consider the relationship between gate and output we discussed.
4Question 4.
True or False: The load line shows the characteristics of the MOSFET.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Remember what we discussed about load lines versus I-V characteristics.
Question 5.
A MOSFET with K=3 mA/V² and a threshold voltage of 1.8V is connected to a 12V supply. If the gate voltage is set to 2.5V, calculate the drain current and determine if the MOSFET is in saturation or not at R=2K.
Show hintHide hint
Make sure to check the voltage drop across the resistor as well!
Question 6.
Analyze a circuit using an NMOS where the load line intersects with the I-V curve at multiple points—describe the significance of each intersection.
Show hintHide hint
After finding the intersection points, identify their corresponding output voltages.
