Figure 6—11 n-channel MOSFET cross-sections under different operating conditions: (a) linear region for VG > VT and VD < (VG2VT); (b) onset of saturation at pinch-off, VG > VT and VD = (VG2VT); (c) strong saturation, VG > VT and VD > (VG 2 VT ).
Figure 6—27 Drain current–voltage characteristics for enhancement transistors: (a) for n-channel VD, VG, VT, and ID are positive; (b) for p-channel all these quantities are negative.
Figure 6—28 Linear region transfer characteristics: (a) plot of drain current versus gate voltage for MOSFETs in the linear region; (b) transconductance as a function of gate bias.
Figure 6—29 Saturation region transfer characteristics: plot of square root of the drain current versus gate voltage for MOSFETs.
Figure 6—39 Equivalent circuit of a MOSFET, showing the passive capacitive and resistive components. The gate capacitance Ci is the sum of the distributed capacitances from the gate to the source-end of the channel (CGS) and the drain-end (CGD). In addition, we have an overlap capacitance (where the gate electrode overlaps the source/drain junctions) from the gate-to-source (COS) and gate-to-drain (COD). COD is also known as the Miller overlap capacitance. We also have p-n junction depletion capacitances associated with the source (CJS) and drain (CJD). The parasitic resistances include the source/drain series resistances (RS and RD), and the resistances in the substrate between the bulk contact and the source and drain (RBS and RBD). The drain current can be modeled as a (gate) voltage-controlled constant-current source.
