DISCUSSION OF THEORY FIELD-EFFECT TRANSISTOR (FET) THE PIELO-EFFEGT TRANSISTOR (FET) 15 A THREE-TEAMINAL DEVICE JUSED FOR A VARIETY OF APPLICATIONS THAT MATCH, To A LARGE EXTENT, THOSE OF THE GIT TRANSISTOR. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES BET~ WEEN THE TWO TYPES OF DEVICES, HERE ARE ALSO MANY SIMILARITIES, WHF ICH WILL BE POINTEO OUT IN THIS DISCUSSION. THE PRIMARY DIFFERENCE GET- EEN THE TWO TYPES OF TRANSISTORS I6 THE FACT THAT: THE BIT TRANSISTOR (5 A CURRENT-CONTROLLED DEVICE SHOWN IN Fig: A.D, WHEREAS THE JFET TRANSISTOR IS A VOLTAGE - CONTROLLED DEVICE ALSO, (Control Ves voltage) (0).

IN PACH CASE THE CURRENT OF THE OUTPUT CIRCUIT IS CONTROLLED BY A PAROMETER OF THE INPUT CIRCUIT-IN ONE CACE 4 CURRENT LEVEL AND IN THE OTHER AN APPLIED VOLTAGE. IT 15 [IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND THAT BJT 16 4 BIPOLAR Orvicé AND Scanned with CamScannerFET 19 A UNIPOLAR DEVICE DEPENDING SOLELY ON BTHER ELECTRON (n= CHANNEL) OR HOLE (p- CHANNEL) CONDUCTION. THE TERM FIELD EFFECT IN THE NAME DESERVES SOME Ex PLANATION. WE ARE ALL FAMILIAR WITH THE AGILITY OF A PERMBDNENT MAGNET TD ORAW METAL FILINGS TO ITSELF WITHOUT THE NEED FOR ACTUAL CONTACT. THe MAGNETIC FIELD oF THE PER- IMANENT MAGNETS DEVELOP FILINGS AND ATTRACTS THEM TO THE MAGNET ALO- ING THE SHDATEST PATH PROVIDED BY THE MAGNENO FLUX LINES. FOR FET AN ELECTRIC FIELD |S ESTABLISHED BY THE CHARGES PRECENT, WHICH CONTROLS JE CONDUCTION PATH OF THE OUTPUT CIRCUIT witHoUuT THE NEED FoR DIRECT CONTACT BETWEEN THE LONTROLLING AND CONTROLLED QuANTINEs. THREE TYPES OF FET'S JUNCTION FIELO-EFFECT TRANSISTOR (JFET), METAL OXIDE SEMI CONDUCTOR 1ELD-EPFECT TRANSISTOR (MOSFET), AND METAL - SEMICONDUCTOR FIELD-EFFECT RANGISTDA | MESrET). THE MOSFET CATEGORY IS FURTUER BROKEN POWN INTO DEPLETION AND ENHANCEMENT TYPES, WHICH ARE GOTH DescRIGED. THE MOSFET TRANSISTOR HAS BCCOME ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DEVICES USED IN THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF INTEGMATED CIRCUITS FOR DIGITAL ComPUTERS. ITS THERMAL! STABILITY AND OTHER GENERAL CHARACTERISHCS MAKE IT EXTREMELY POPULAR IN COMPUTER CIRCUIT DESIGN. HOWEVER, As A DISCRETE ELEMENT IN A TYPICAL TOP- HAT CONTAINER, IT MvéT BE HANDLED WITH CARE. THE MECFET Is A MORE IRCCENT DEVELOPMENT AND TAKES FULL ADVANTAGE OF THE HIGH-SPEED CHARACTE- RISTICS OF GaAs AS THE BASE seMmICDNDUCTOR MATERIAL: ALTHOUGH CURRENTLY He MORE EXPENSIVE OPTION, THE COST ISSUE [5 OFTEN OUTWEIGHED IN RF DEGIONS | Scanned with CamScannerFET 18 DIVIDEO INTO 3 ANPLIFIER CONFIGURATION THAT CORRESPONDING TO 9 CONFIGURATIONS OF BIPOLAR TRANSISTORS. THEY ARE COMMON ~ SOURCE, COMMON DRAIN SOURCE FOLLOWER), ANID COMMON-GATE AMPLIFIER CIRWITS. THE COMMON — SOURCE AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT 16 MOST WIDELY USEO THAN ANY OTHER AMPLIFIER UR- CUITS BECRUSE IT CAN PRODUCE HIGH INPUT AND OUTTVT IMPEDANCE, AND ALSo 5 PER- ORMANCE 19 HIGH, COMMON SOURCE AMPLIFIER WHEN THE INPUT SIGNAL IS APPLIED AT THE GATE TERMINAL AND SOURCE TERMI- INAL, THEN THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE IS AMPLIFIED AND OBTAINED AcAoss THE RECISTOA AT ME LOAD IN THE DRAIN TERMINAL. THIS 1S CALLEO A COMMON COUACE AMPLIFIER. SOURCE ACTS AC A COMMON TERMINAL BETWEEN THE WOUT AND OUTPUT. IT Is ALsD KNOWN AS A VOLTAGE AMPLIFIER OR A TRAIISCONDUCTANCE AMPLIFIER. IT PRODUCES IMARENT Grin AND VOLTAGE GAIN ACLORDING TD THE INPUT IMPEDANCE AND OUTPUT] IMPEDANCE. 10 PRODUCE VOLTAGE GAIN ALONG WITH HIGH INPUT IMPEDANCES FET'S ARE seo IM THESE Reus. THE CIRCUIT DIAGRAM OF A comMON SOURCE AMPLIFIER Wit N- CHANNEL FET ALONG WITH THE COUPLING AND GIACING CAPABILITY IS SHORN IN FIG. 2.TUs CIRCUIT WILL BE SIMILAR TD THE LOMMON- EMITTER FOLLOWER OF BIPOLAR JUN-| ICTION TRANSISTOR. IF WE USE p- CHANNEL FET, THE POLARITY OF THE INPUT VOLTAGE WILL se REVERSED.

WIGH- LEVEL PERFORMANCE OVER OTHER AMPLIFIER ciRCUITS LIKE & COMMON DRAIN (SoUACE FOLLOWER) Ailb COMMON GATE. HENCE IT IS Most WIDELY USED THAN OTHER AMPLIFIERS CIRCUITS. ALSO, THE COMMON SOURCE FET AMPLIFIER CONCISTS OF 3 TERMINALS: SOURCE, CATE, AND ORAIN.

THE CIRCUIT DECIONS OF Low FREQUENCY AND AUDIo TRANCIS TOR CIR~ IUITS ARE DIFFERENT FROM RF APPLICATIONS. THE cApACITORS ANG THE TYPE }OF FET cco IN THE OPERATION MAY EFFECT THE FREQUENCY RESPONSE OF THE AMPLIFIER. THE PREGUENLY RESPONSE OF THIS AMPLIFIER IS LIMITED. THIS Is THE MAIN DRAWBACK. THE AMPLIFIED OUTPUT VOLTAGE CAN BE APPLIED TO EITHER JA COMMON-DRAIN CIRCUIT LVOLTAGE FOLLOWER) OR LOMMON-GATE CIRCUIT (HUR- RENT POLLOWER) TO OBTAIN BETTER FREGUENCY RESPONCE, COMMON- DRAIN AND COMMON - GATE CARCUITS ARE COMBINED TD FORM A CASCADE AMPLIFIER CIACUIT. IF THE BIACING ARRANGEMENT IS IMPROPER, THE SOME FORM OF DISTOR- TION MAY APPEAR IN THE AMPLIEO OUTPUT SIGNAL. THAT IS AMPLITUDE DisroRTIO WHICH CAN OCCUR DUE TD THE EFTECT OF PHACE “WIFT, CLIPPING OF SIGNAL, AND JALSO FREQUENCY DISTORTION.
