What is the function of enhancement mosfet?
An enhancement MOSFET doesn't conduct current across the drain to source unless a voltage is applied to the gate. When sufficient voltage is applied to the gate of the transistor, currents flows from drain to source. A MOSFET acts as a switch or amplifier in a circuit.
Advantages and disadvantages of depletion MOSFET?
Since the logic operations of depletion MOSFET is the opposite to the enhancement MOSFET, the depletion MOSFET produces positive logic circuits, such as, buffer, AND, and OR. The most significant advantage of the positive logic circuits is that it can produce positive feedback easily so that a single depletion MOSFET can become a memory cell. In contrast, you will need at least two enhancement MOSFET transistor to produce the positive feedback to build a memory cell. The other advantages of depletion MOSFET are that it is free from sub-threshold leakage current and gate-oxide leakage current. Since there is always a potential difference of Vdd between the gate terminal and channel for an enhancement MOSFET to cause the gate-oxide leakage current, the gate oxide leakage current is unavoidable when the transistor shrinks in size and oxide layer becomes thinner. The depletion MOSFET does not have this problem because there is no potential difference between the gate and channel. As a enhancement MOSFET shrinking in size, there is no way to stop the subthreshold leakage current diffused across from source to drain because the drain and source terminals are closer physically. This is not a problem for depletion MOSFET because a pinched channel will stop the diffusion current completely. The depletion MOSFET is the ideal, perfect transistor. The only disadvantage of depletion MOSFET is its inability to produce negative logic operations.
What is the function of Substrate in MOSFET?
it will control the flow of electrons between the source and drain,the controlling will be depends upon the input voltage to the substrate.

Why mosfet is called mosfet?
MOSFET is an acronym standing for Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor.
How punchthrough risks can be reduced?
A simple way to reduce the punchthrough effect is to increase the overall bulk doping level. As a result the drain and source depletion regions will become smaller.

What is open drain or open collector?
Open drain or collector means ,collector and drain terminal of BJT and MOSFET will be left open during implementation/fabrication.They will not be connected from Supply Vcc or VDD.

Can transistors have four legs?
In case of a bipolar junction transistor, we have only three terminals (legs). They are emitter, base and collector. But, in case of a MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor), we can have four legs. They are source, drain, gate and substrate. The substrate is not being shown in some notations of MOSFET. But it does exist. Hence, a MOSFET has four legs.

What are depletion and enhancement mosfet?
A depletion MOSFET is a MOSFET that is normally on. It outputs maximum current when the gate-source voltage is 0V. As the gate-source voltage increases, the drain-source channel becomes more resistive and the current decreases. An enhancement MOSFET has the opposite behavior. It is normally off. It outputs no current when the gate-source voltage is 0V. As the gate-source voltage increases, the drain-source channel becomes less resistive and the current increases.
In MOSFET the pinch-off voltage refers to?
This refers to the voltage Vds that counteracts the opening of the n-channel (NMOS), at the drain end. Since the width of the channel is a function of Vgs - Vtn, the mosfet saturates (pinches off) when Vds is greater or equal than/to Vgs - Vtn.
Can depletion mosfet act as enhancement mosfet?
It depends. A depletion MOSFET can be used as an ehancemnet MOSFET when it is operated as an analog amplifier. However, a depletion MOSFET can't replace an enhancement MOSFET when it is operated as a digital switch. When a depletion MOSFET is used as a digital switch, since the junction between source terminal and substrate must be reverse biased, the voltage of the source terminal of an N typde transistor must be tied to Vdd, and it is completely opposite to an enhancement MOSFET. When a depletion MOSFET is used as an analog amplifer, the source terminal and the substrate are both at the same potential, just like an enhancement MOSFET.
How do you check 8 pin mosfet in laptop motherboard by multimetre?
Hello all , My faculty at CHIPTRONIKS told me this :Get a multimeter with a diode test range.Connect the meter negative to the MOSFET's source.Hold the MOSFET by the case or the tab if you wish, it doesn't matter if you touch the metal body but be careful not to touch the leads until you need to. Do NOT allow a MOSFET to come in contact with your clothes, plastic or plastic products, etc. because of the high static voltages it can generate.First touch the meter positive on to the gate.Now move the positive meter probe to the drain. You should get a low reading. The MOSFET's gate capacitance has been charged up by the meter and the device is turned on.With the meter positive still connected to the drain, touch a finger between source and gate (and drain if you wish, it doesn't matter). The gate will be discharged through your finger and the meter reading should go high, indicating a non-conducting device.
