The gate of a JFET is ___________ biased?
Correct answer: A. reverse
- A. reverse
- B. forward
- C. reverse as well as forward
- D. none of the above
Explanation
The JFET gate-channel junction is normally reverse biased, so its gate current is nearly zero and its input resistance is very high. Forward bias would cause substantial gate current and is not normal JFET operation.
