FET is a field effect transistor, abbreviated to FET. There are two basic types of FET: a junction FET abbreviated to JFET and an insulated gate FET , abbreviated to IGFET. The most common type of IGFET is a metal-oxide silicon FET, Known as a MOSFET. Modern microprocessors may contain tens of millions of MOSFETs.
configurations of Common-source (CS), Common-drain (CD) or Source-follower (SF) and the Common-gate (CG) available for most FET devices. These three JFET amplifier configurations correspond to the common-emitter, emitter-follower and the common-base configurations using bipolar transistors.

A common-source (CS) amplifier is a type of field-effect transistor (FET) amplifier configuration that provides voltage amplification. In this setup, the input signal is applied to the gate terminal of the FET, while the output is taken from the drain terminal. It is characterized by its high input impedance and moderate output impedance, making it suitable for interfacing with high-impedance sources. The CS amplifier is widely used in analog circuits due to its simplicity and effectiveness in amplifying signals.
A FET (Field Effect Transistor) is mainly used when the input signal needs to be isolated from the output. A FET has a very high input resistance, so very little current is required from the input. Voltage gain is not the main objective when using a FET.
To measure DC voltage in a multistage FET amplifier, you should first ensure the device is powered on and the input signal is disconnected to avoid interference. Use a digital multimeter (DMM) set to the DC voltage measurement mode. Connect the positive lead of the DMM to the point where you want to measure the voltage (e.g., the drain or gate of a FET) and the negative lead to the common ground of the circuit. This will provide you with the DC voltage level at that specific point in the amplifier circuit.
