Creating a channel for current flow
An n channel can be induced at
the top of the substrate beneath
the gate by applying a positive
voltage to the gate
The channel is an inversion
layer
The value of VGS at which a
sufficient number of mobile
electrons accumulate to form a
conducting channel is called the
threshold voltage (Vt)

Drain current under small voltage vDS
An NMOS transistor with vGS > Vt and with a small vDS
applied.
 The channel depth is uniform and the device acts as a
resistance.
The channel conductance is
proportional to effective voltage,
or excess gate voltage, (vGS – Vt) .
Drain current is proportional to
(vGS – Vt) and vDS.

pinched off

Drain current under pinch off
• The electrons pass through the pinch off area at very
high speed so as the current continuity holds, similar to
the water flow at the Yangtze Gorges

Drain current controlled by vGS
 vGS creates the channel.
 Increasing vGS will increase
the conductance of
the channel.
 At saturation region only the vGS controls the
drain current.
 At subthreshold region, drain current has the
exponential relationship with vGS

the n device is formed in a p well.

• Explanation for channel length modulation
 Pinched point moves to source terminal with the
voltage vDS increased.
 Effective channel length reduced
 Channel resistance decreased
 Drain current increases with the voltage vDS

The body effect

In discrete circuit usually there is no body effect due
to the connection between body and source terminal.
 In IC circuit the substrate is connected to the most
negative power supply for NMOS circuit in order to
maintain the pn junction reversed biased.
 The body effect---the body voltage can control iD

MOS管注意事项

MOS管栅-衬之间的电容很小,只要有少量的
感应电荷就可产生很高的电压。
 由于RGS(DC)很大,感应电荷难于释放,感应电
荷所产生的高压会使很薄的绝缘层击穿,造成
管子损坏。
 因此,在存放、焊接和电路设计时要多加注意,
应给栅-源之间提供直流通路,避免栅极悬空。

38
MOS管注意事项

MOS器件出厂时通常装在黑色的导电泡沫
塑料袋中,切勿自行随便拿个塑料袋装。
可用细铜线把各个引脚连接在一起,或用
锡纸包装。
 取出的MOS器件不能在塑料板上滑动,应
用金属盘来盛放待用器件。
 焊接用的电烙铁必须良好接地。
 在焊接前应把电路板的电源线与地线短接,
待MOS器件焊接完成后再分开。

39
MOS管注意事项

MOS器件各引脚的焊接顺序是漏极、源极、
栅极。拆机时顺序相反。
 电路板在装机之前,要用接地的线夹子去
碰一下机器的各接线端子,再把电路板接
上去。
 MOS场效应晶体管的栅极在允许条件下,
最好接入保护二极管。在检修电路时应注
意查证原有的保护二极管是否损坏。


Diode, BJT and FET are nonlinear devices
made of semiconductor, mostly silicon
 Diode
A diode allows current to flow in forward direction
and hence can perform functions such as
rectification, demodulation/detection, switch etc.
 The reverse current may become dramatically
large at breakdown, such phenomena can be used
as voltage regulator


A BJT has three terminals: base, emitter and collector
The collector current is controlled by voltage/ current on
the base-emitter junction and is almost independent on
collector voltage.
It can perform functions such as amplification and switch,
etc.
A BJT should be properly biased for normal operation
There are three basic configurations, each has different
performance (input/output resistance, gain, high frequency
response, etc)

Field Effect Transistor
A FET has three terminals: gate, source and drain
 The drain current is controlled by gate voltage and
is almost independent on drain voltage.
 It can perform functions such as amplification,
logic calculation and switch, etc.
 A FET should be properly biased for normal
operation
 There are three basic configurations, each has
different performance (input/output resistance,


As the microelectronics develops, more and
more functions are fulfilled by IC chips
 The discrete devices and circuits, however, are
still very important not only for practical
applications, but also for better understanding
and design of LSICs
 Quantitative calculation is sometimes
complicated but not difficult
 As long as you know the parameter definitions
clearly, results can be derived KCL, KVL, etc
