Exam-style question
Try this first
Which terminal of a MOSFET is used to apply the control voltage?.
- A.Source
- B.Gate
- C.Drain
- D.Emitter
Model answer
What a good answer should say
- Gate
Explanation
Why this works
The Gate terminal is used to apply the control voltage in a MOSFET. This voltage determines whether the MOSFET is in an 'on' or 'off' state, thus controlling the current flow.
