    Study Notes

    FET transistor

    • A Field Effect Transistor (FET) is a three-terminal active electronic component.
    • The output current of a FET is controlled by the input voltage.
    • FETs can be used in two primary applications:
      • As an amplifier
      • As a switch

    FET Classification

    • One type of FET is the Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET).
    • The JFET has a unique symbol.
