Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A p-MOSFET has a threshold voltage of -1V. If a gate voltage of -3V and a drain-source voltage of -4V is applied, determine if the device is operating in saturation and calculate the drain current.
💡 Hint: Pay attention to voltage polarities and compare them for current calculations.
Discuss the effects on a p-MOSFET's I-V characteristics when body and source are tightly coupled versus loosely connected.
💡 Hint: Consider impacts on junctions in semiconductor devices.
