Questions and Answers

What is the significance of the power dissipation specification in FETs?

  • It provides information on the device's temperature coefficient
  • It indicates the maximum continuous power that the device can dissipate (correct)
  • It specifies the minimum current required for operation
  • It determines the maximum voltage that can be applied to the device

In what type of FETs is the power dissipation specification more likely to be detailed in a condition where they are held on a heat sink?

  • Signal FETs
  • Power FETs (correct)
  • RF FETs
  • Switching FETs

What is the typical temperature at which the power dissipation is specified in FETs?

  • 75°C
  • 25°C (correct)
  • 100°C
  • 50°C
