Question 1 1
/ 1 pts

Always handle MOSFETs with additional care due to the static electricity
that exists

in places we might least suspect. Do not remove any shorting mechanism

between the

leads of the device until it is installed.

 
True

 
False

Incorrect Question 2 0
/ 1 pts

The transfer characteristics of an enhancement-type MOSFET are

defined by

Shockley’s equation

True

 
False

Question 3 1
/ 1 pts

A current-controlled device is one in which a current defines the operating

conditions

of the device, whereas a voltage-controlled device is one in which a

particular

voltage defines the operating conditions.

 
True

 
False

Question 4 1
/ 1 pts

The arrow in the symbol of n -channel JFETs or MOSFETs will always

point in to the

center of the symbol , whereas those of a p -channel device will always

point out of

the center of the symbol.

 
True

 
False

Question 5 1
/ 1 pts

The transfer characteristics ( ID versus VGS ) are characteristics of the

device itself and are not sensitive to the network in which the JFET is
employed

 
True

 
False

Incorrect Question 6 0
/ 1 pts

A certain JFET data sheet gives VGS(off) = -4 V. The pinch-off voltage VP

 
depends on VGS.

 
is -4 V.

 
cannot be determined.

 
is 4 V.

Incorrect Question 7 0
/ 1 pts

A JFET always operates with

 
the drain connected to ground.

 
the G-S pn junction forward-biased.

 
the G-S pn junction reverse-biased.

 
the gate connected to the source

Incorrect 0
/ 1 pts
Question 8

The name of the barrier established by depositing a metal on the channel

of a transistor.

MOSFET

Question 9 1
/ 1 pts

It is the region to the left of the pinch-off locus where the JFET can
actually be employed as a variable resistor whose resistance is controlled
by the applied gate-to-source voltage.

11/9/21, 12:35 PM 🔑M4| Formative Assessment: Electronics Devices & Circuits

Ohmic region

Incorrect
Question 10 0
/ 1 pts

A MOSFET differs from a JFET mainly because

 
MOSFETs do not have a physical channel.

 
of the power rating.

 
the MOSFET has two gates.

 
the JFET has a pn junction.

Incorrect 0
/ 1 pts
Question 11

It is the terminal of an FET analogous to the base of a BJT.

Source

Incorrect 0
/ 1 pts
Question 12

It is a type of FET that operates with a reverse-biased pn junction to

control current in a channel. (Acronyms/Symbols are not permitted.)

junction field effect transistor

Incorrect
Question 13 0
/ 1 pts

The JFET is

 
a unipolar device and at the same time a voltage-controlled device.

 
a current-controlled device.

a unipolar device.

Incorrect
Question 14 0
/ 1 pts

the D-S bias voltage decreases

 
the G-S bias voltage decreases

 
the D-S bias voltage increases

 
the G-S bias voltage increases

Incorrect 0
/ 1 pts
