- Summary
MOS Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) provide many advantages. in particular, they have very high input impedance and are able to be used in very low current circuits. This is particularly important for integrated circuit technology where power limitations are a major consideration. In order to understand how MOSFETs work, it is essential to understand the underlying concepts of a Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) capacitor which forms the basic building block of a MOSFET. MOSFETs are again an integral part of semiconductor memories.
What is this 'Microlearning Course' about?
