Question 1

What is the primary condition for a MOSFET to be in the cutoff region?

VGS < Vth
VGS = Vth
VGS > Vth

💡 Hint: Remember what happens below the threshold voltage.

Question 2

True or False: The saturation region occurs when the drain-source voltage is very low.

True
False

💡 Hint: Think about the behavior of current in saturation.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A n-MOSFET has a threshold voltage of 1.5V. What would happen to the current if VGS is set to 1.2V? Illustrate this behavior using an I-V curve.

💡 Hint: Plot points on a graph to illustrate the current remaining at zero until sufficient voltage is applied.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given an n-MOSFET with Vth=1V, calculate the drain current if VGS=3V and VDS=1V. What region of operation does this MOSFET fall into?

💡 Hint: Review the equations for the triode operation and plug in your values.
