the flow of current through the N channel is negative

in the form of electrons

the flow of current through the P channel is positive

in the form of holes.

N-channel JFET's have a greater channel conductivity

(lower resistance)

N-channel JFET's is more efficient conductor

compared to P-channel .

There are two depletion regions without current.

CHARACTERISTICS OF JFETs

IG=0

ID=IS

If VDS increase ID increase

Depletion region will be wider

At VDS=Vp ID=IDSS

: max current(at saturation)

When Vgs=Vp ID=0

The result of applying a negative bias to the gate is to

reach the saturation level at a lower level of VDS .

Ohmic or voltage-controlled resistance region

Steps:

•Connect the circuit shown

•Chang VDC from 0-25V while simultaneously monitoring

the voltage across RD(VRD=ID*RD).

•Stop raising once the VRD ceases to rise significantly.

•Calculate ID which is IDSS.

Note:

The maximum current IDSS occurs when VGS = 0 V and VDS ≥ |Vp|

Steps:

Replace the short from Vgs with the output of

negative (0-25)V power supply.

Adjust VDC to 15V.

Start with Vgs=0 and lower its value

( more negative) while simultaneously monitoring

VRD.

At VRD =0 then the value of Vgs=Vp (pinch-off voltage).
