There is a category of transistors called Field Effect Transistor (FET). In this category, a lot of field effect transistors are there like Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET), Metal Oxide Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET), Metal Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MSFET), etc. In this article, we will compare and contrast the various features of JFET and MOSFET.What is JFET?JFET stands for junction field effect transistor. The JFET is a three terminal semiconductor device and the terminals are: Source (S), Drain (D) and Gate (G). JFET has a channel between source and drain. The channel is the path between the source and ... Read More

Both BJTs and FETs are transistors widely used in different types of electronic applications. Go through this article to find out the important features of BJTs and FETs and how they differ from each other in the way they function.What is BJT?BJT stands for Bipolar Junction Transistor. The BJT is the type of transistor in which the current flow is due to two types of charge carriers viz. electrons and holes. A BJT consists of three alternating layers of P-type and N-type semiconductor materials and two P-N junctions.When P-type semiconductor material is sandwiched between two N-type layers, the bipolar junction ...
