Definition of JFET (Junction Field Effect Transistor)
● JFET is a three-terminal component where one terminal can control the
current between the other two terminals.
● JFETs consist of two types, namely N-canal and P-canal
JFET symbol
JFET Construction and Structure
● The structure is made of N-type material
that forms canals
● P-canals, the structure is made of P-type
material
● The top part of the canal is connected to
a terminal called Drain (D)
● The bottom part is connected to a
terminal called Source (S)
● The N-canal, type P material is inserted
which is connected together to a terminal
called gate (G)
JFET Characteristics
1. Drain Characteristics Curve
• The drain characteristic curve states the
amount of drain current (ID) that occurs
relative to the drain-source voltage (VDS)
• The gate voltage is 0V, if VDD is increased
(VDS also increases), ID will increase in
proportion to the increase in VDS voltage.
• The gate is energized (reverse/negative bias),
then the constant value of the ID drain
current will decrease.
• In a JFET VGS(off) and VP are always the same
magnitude, only the signs are different.
Example Question 1
VDS = VD - VS
VDS = VDD – ID (RD + RS)
Example Question 3
• Determine the VDS and VGS voltages in Figure if
the following values are known: VDD=10V,
RD=1KΩ, RG=10MΩ and RS=220Ω, and the
resulting drain current is 5mA!
• Solution:
1. P canal JFET
• How JFET P canal works:
• To make the JFET P canal work is to provide a voltage of 0 Volts to the
Gate and provide a positive voltage to the Source (VS) then the Drain
is given a voltage (VD) of 0 Volts or a lower voltage compared to the
Source voltage.
• To turn off or turn off the JFET P canal there are two ways, namely:
• 1. By cutting off the positive bias voltage at the Source terminal
• 2. By increasing the positive bias voltage at the Gate terminal until the
depletion layer covers the P canal area
WORKING PRINCIPLES
2. N canal JFET
● How JFET N canal works:
● To activate the N canal JFET you need to provide a positive bias at the Drain
terminal and provide a voltage of 0 Volts at the Gate terminal (VG = 0 Volts)
● To turn off or turn off the N canal JFET there are two ways, namely:
● 1. Cut off the bias voltage at the Drain terminal so that no current flows to
the Drain terminal.
● 2. Provide a negative bias at the Gate terminal until both sides of the Gate
depletion layer widen and cover the current path from Drain to Source.
