Zorluk: ZorTransistors

Unlike current-driven bipolar devices, an enhancement-mode metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) conducts significant current between its drain and source terminals when its gate-to-source voltage is zero.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. Enhancement-mode MOSFETs are normally-off devices that require a gate-to-source voltage exceeding the threshold voltage to establish a channel and conduct current.
The evaluation 'False' is correct because enhancement-mode MOSFETs are normally-off solid-state devices. Without an applied gate-to-source voltage exceeding the device's threshold voltage (VthV_{th}), the channel between the drain and source remains non-conductive, preventing drain current from flowing.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the component classification and operating archetype specified in the statement.
The statement specifies an enhancement-mode metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET).
Different transistor families (bipolar vs. field-effect) and operational modes (enhancement vs. depletion) exhibit distinct default conduction states.
2
Analyze the channel status of an enhancement-mode device at zero gate-to-source voltage (VGS=0 VV_{GS} = 0\text{ V}).
At VGS=0 VV_{GS} = 0\text{ V}, no conductive channel connects the drain and source regions across the substrate, resulting in an open circuit where drain current (IDI_D) is approximately zero.
Enhancement-mode devices are manufactured without a pre-formed channel and operate as normally-off switches.
3
Determine what electrical condition is required to initiate conduction.
An electric field created by applying a gate-to-source voltage greater than the threshold voltage (VGS>VthV_{GS} > V_{th}) is mandatory to enhance/induce a channel.
Because current does not flow at zero bias, the assertion that it conducts significant current at zero gate voltage is incorrect.

Alternatif Yöntem

Recall the root word 'enhance': the channel must be actively enhanced (created) by gate voltage, meaning at zero gate voltage, no channel exists and no current flows.
