Sesi II 2021 Topicd Lect2

This document discusses semiconductor devices and field effect transistor (FET) amplifier configurations. It begins by outlining the learning outcomes, which include explaining the function of FETs as amplifiers and discussing different amplifier types - common drain, common source, and common gate. It then provides details on each configuration, including their typical uses and characteristics. The document concludes by summarizing the key parameters of each FET configuration, such as voltage and current gain, input and output resistance, and phase relationship.

LESSON LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Explain function of FET in amplifier


• Relate function as amplifier to the linear/active operating
region
• Explain with aid of diagram the following different types of
amplifier
a. Common Drain
b. Common Source
c. Common Gate
• Outline DC load line
• Discuss data sheets

FET as Amplifier

o Small signal amplifiers can also be made using FET.


o Better compared to BJT because having high input impedance
and low noise output .
o Three configurations which are:
• Common-source (CS)
• Common-drain (CD) or Source-follower (SF)
• Common-gate (CG)
JFET Amplifier Configurations
4

COMMON SOURCE COMMON DRAIN COMMON GATE


5

Common-source (CS)

The signal enters the gate and exits


at the drain.

Drawback of this amplifier's


is limited

Typically used as a voltage amplifier


and trans conductance amplifier.
6

Common-source (CS)

o This configuration is probably


the most widely used.

o Output is the inverse of the


input, i.e. 180° phase change.
Common-Drain (CD)
7

Gate terminal of the transistor serves as the input, the


source is the output .

Drain is common to both (input and output), so that is the


reason why it is called Common Drain.

Also known as a source follower

Typically used as a voltage buffer


8

Common- Drain (CD)

o Offering a high input impedance and


a low output impedance it is widely
used as a buffer.

o The input and output signals are in


phase.
9

Common-Gate (CG)

Source terminal of the transistor serves as


the input, the drain is the output

Gate is common to both input and output,


that why its called common gate

Typically used as a current buffer or


voltage amplifier.
10
Common-Gate (CG)

 This transistor configuration provides a low input


impedance while offering a high output
impedance.
 The input and output are in phase.

Advantages :
 ease of impedance matching
 lower noise.

Describe the data sheets 2N5457 JFET n-channel

Electrical Characteristics
The electrical characteristics
include the level of
-VP (pinch off voltage) in the
OFF CHARACTERISTICS
-IDSS in the
ON CHARACTERISTICS.
In this case VP = VGS(off) has a
range from -0.5 to -6.0 V and
IDSS from 1 to 5 mA.

The fact that both will vary from device


to device with the same name plate
identification must be considered in
the design process.
