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.
