    There are three common biasing techniques for MOSFETs discussed in the document: 1. Zero bias uses depletion-type MOSFETs with a gate-source potential of zero volts, resulting in a drain current of IDSS. 2. Self-bias does not apply a voltage to the gate but maintains a reverse bias between gate and source through the drain current and a resistor. For n-channel MOSFETs the gate-source voltage is negative, and positive for p-channel. 3. Voltage divider bias uses a resistor divider network to set the gate voltage, resulting in a gate-source voltage that is the difference between the gate voltage and the voltage drop

    MOSFET BIASING TECHNIQUES

     Zero Bias –is a popular biasing technique that can be used only with depletion-
    type MOSFETs.
     This form of bias is called zero bias because the potential difference between the
    gate-source region is zero.
    Since there is no current in the gate circuit,
    no voltage is developed across RG, and
    VGS=0
    Therefore ID=IDSS, and
    VDs=VDD-IDRD.
    Note that the value of RD is normally
    chosen so that
    IDSS Rd =0.5VDD
    (which midpoint biases the circuit).
    D-MOSFET SELF BIAS
    Self-bias is the most common type of biasing method for JFETs. Notice there is
    no voltage applied to the gate. The voltage to ground from here will always be
    VG = 0V. However, the voltage from gate to source (VGS) will be negative for n
    channel and positive for p channel keeping the junction reverse biased. This
    voltage can be determined by the formulas below. ID = IS for all JFET circuits.

    (n channel) VGS = VG – VS = -IDRS

    (p channel) VGS = +IDRS


    D MOSFET VOLTAGE DIVIDER BIAS

    Depletion-type MOSFET bias circuits are similar to JFETs. The


    only difference is that the depletion-Type MOSFETs can operate
    with positive values of VGS and with ID values that exceed IDSS.

    D-MOSFET BIASING

    • ID=IDSS(1-VGS/VP)2

    • Voltage-divider configuration results in:

    • VGS=VG-IDRS

    • Where VG=R2xVDD/(R1+R2)
