Circuits and Electronic Devices: Lecture No

This document provides a summary of a lecture on circuits and electronic devices. It discusses dc load lines and their use in determining the operating point of transistors. It also covers metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) including their construction, types (enhancement and depletion mode), symbols, and basic working principles. Examples are provided to illustrate how to analyze dc load lines and calculate drain current for an enhancement-mode MOSFET. Relevant sections and examples from an electronics textbook are cited.

Linear amplification (Linear region)
Linear Operation

• The region along the load line between saturation and cutoff is generally known as the linear
region.
• In this region, the output voltage is ideally a linear reproduction of the input.
Distortion
Distorsion

Too close to saturation region Too close to cutoff region


Example: Determine the Q-point for the circuit in Figure and draw the dc load
line. Find the maximum peak value of base current for linear operation.

Basis working principle of E-MOSFET (N channel)
The MOSFET
• The metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) is the second category of FETs.
• There are depletion MOSFETs (D-MOSFET) and enhancement MOSFETs (E-MOSFET). Note the
difference in construction. The E-MOSFET has no structural channel.

Representation of the basic E-MOSFET construction Representation of the basic structure of


and operation (n-channel). D-MOSFETs.
The MOSFET – Enhancement MOSFET (E-MOSFET)
• The E-MOSFET operates only in the enhancement mode and has no depletion mode.
• For n-channel device, a positive gate voltage above threshold value are needed
E-MOSFET Transfer Characteristic
• The E-MOSFET for all practical purposes does not conduct until VGS reaches the threshold voltage (VGS(th)).
• ID when it is when conducting can be determined by the formulas below.
• K = ID(on) /(VGS - VGS(th))2 ID = K(VGS - VGS(th))2

• An n-channel device requires a positive gate-to-source voltage,


• and a p-channel device requires a negative gate-to-source voltage.
Ex. 7-9 The data sheet for a 2N7008 E-MOSFET gives ID(on)= 500 mA (minimum) at VGS = 10 V and VGS(th) = 1 V.
Determine the drain current for VGS = 5 V.

First, solve for K using Equation,

I D ( on) 500 mA 500 mA


K    6. 17 mA / V 2

(VGS  VGS ( th) ) 2 10 V  1V  2 81V 2

Next, using the value of K, calculate ID for VGS = 5 V.

I D  K (VGS  VGS (th ) ) 2


 (6.17 mA / V 2 )(5V  1V ) 2  98.7 mA
