Question 1

What does the ID-VGS curve represent?

  • Relationship between current and gate voltage
  • Relationship between current and drain voltage
  • Voltage at the drain terminal

💡 Hint: Think about which voltage directly controls the transistor operation.

Question 2

True or False: The threshold voltage (Vt) is the point where ID begins to decrease.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider the behavior of the transistor when it reaches the Vt.
