If an NMOS transistor is biased with VGS = 3V and Vt = 2.5V, and VDS is varied from 0V to 1.5V, what regions does the transistor operate in?
💡 Hint: Look at both gate-source and drain-source relationships.
For a PMOS transistor with VGS = -1V and Vt = -1.5V, describe its operational state if VDS is set to -0.5V.
💡 Hint: Consider how voltages interact on both sides of the device.
