Drain (D)
Gate (G)
Dominant Types
The channel of a FET is doped to produce either an
n-type semiconductor or a p-type semiconductor. But,
the standard types are
Junction FET
(MOSFET)
Metal-nitride-oxide-semiconductor transistor
(MNOS)
OFET (Organic field-effect transistors)
Pros
FET has a high gate to maintain current resistance
FET produces less noise than a bipolar junction
transistor (BJT)
Exhibit no offset voltage and hence makes an
excellent signal chopper
Typically has better thermal stability than BJT
Cons
Low gain-bandwidth product compared to BJT
FETs are susceptible to overload voltages, thus
requiring special handling
Require very careful layout due to low “on” voltage
and high “off” voltage
High-voltage FETs have a relatively high “on”
voltage which result in conduction loss
Uses
Basis for modern digital integrated circuits
Suitable for switching analogy signals
Amplifiers like VHF
IGBTs are used in switching internal combustion
engine ignition coils
FinFETs (MOSFET tri-gate transistor)
