MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor):

MOSFET transistor is a semiconductor device that is used for amplifying and switching electronic signals in electronic devices.

MOSFET is of two types:

1. Enhancement MOSFET:

  • In this kind of MOSFET, there is no predefined channel. The channel is constructed using the gate to source applied voltage.
  • The more is the voltage on the gate, the better the device can conduct.

2. Depletion mode MOSFET:

  • In this type of MOSFET, the channel (between drain and source) is predefined and the MOSFET conducts without any application of the gate voltage.
  • As the voltage on the gate is either positive or negative,  the channel conductivity decreases.
  • Depletion MOSFET can work in both depletion and enhancement mode.

MOSFET can be used in multiple ways such as:

  • MOSFET as a switch for LED.
  • MOSFET as a switch for Arduino.
  • MOSFET switch for ac load.
  • MOSFET switch for dc motor.
  • MOSFET switch for negative voltage.
  • MOSFET as a switch with a microcontroller.
  • MOSFET switch with hysteresis.
  • MOSFET as switch diode and active resistor.
  • MOSFET as a switch equation.
  • MOSFET switch for airsoft.
  • MOSFET as switch gate resistor.
  • MOSFET as a switching solenoid.
  • MOSFET switch using an optocoupler.
