Comparison of MOSFET with JFET

Question: Give comparison between JFET and MOSFET.

Comparison of MOSFET with JFET

 


 

1. Types

JFET: a) n‒channel b) p‒channel

MOSFET: A) n‒channel depletion type MOSFET B) p‒channel depletion type MOSFET C) n‒channel enhancement type MOSFET D) p‒channel enhancement type MOSFET

2. Symbols

JFET: 

MOSFET: 

3. Operation mode

JFET: Operated in depletion mode

MOSFET: Operated in depletion and enhancement mode

4. Input impedance

JFET: High (>10 MΩ)

MOSFET: Very high (>10,000 MΩ)

5. Gate

JFET: Gate is not insulated from channel

MOSFET: Gate is insulated from channel by a layer of SiO2.

6. Channel

JFET: Channel exists permanently

MOSFET: Channel exists permanently in depletion type MOSFET, but not in enhancement type MOSFET.
