Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a MOSFET with a threshold voltage of 3V and a constant k = 0.5 mA/V^2, calculate I_DS when V_GS = 5V and V_DS = 2V assuming it operates in saturation.
💡 Hint: Use the saturation current equation.
Explain how the I-V curve would change if V_th were increased to 4V.
💡 Hint: Consider the implications for the cutoff region.
