The VI Characteristics and Operating Regions of a JFET

If the different operating regions of a JFET or junction field effect transistor ever confuses you or you get them mixed up, you're not alone. Besides having different names for the same regions and names that may seem counterintuitive at first, it's not surprising that it can confuse so many people. We try to demystify this topic by explaining the reasons behind the different names, taking an in-depth dive into a JFET's current/voltage curves, and briefly mentioning the roles each operating region typically fills.

thank you .i am egyption and I benefited a lot

[@srandom-bu2rl]

thank you for the explanation!!

[@Black_Engineer]

Great video, thank u!

[@castlecodersltd]

Another great video. Thank you for the explanation ☺

[@CircuitBread]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nicolascoclive]

Hey ! I love how you present those subjects. Which software or tool are you using to make those quality graphics and animations ?

[@CircuitBread]

We're thrilled to hear your positive feedback! It's all thanks to our incredible in-house video/graphics team that we're able to deliver such awesome content. They generally use Adobe products with Blender for any 3D work.

[@nicolascoclive]

Awesome, I eventually thought it was it. Continue in that way !

[@mohammedkhalidallmuallimi9232]

Can I make a video about VI characteristics because I don’t really understand what will happen if voltage increase or decrease?
And think you and your team from all my for this explanation ❤

[@arulannrezia9496]

U r really amazing :)

At 4:11 the arrow points from p to n side

[@ZacksLab]

your video description is talking about BJTs (not JFETs like the video)

[@CircuitBread]

Thank you, that has been fixed!
