Thermal runaway is not possible in FET because as the temperature of FET increases_________________?

Correct answer: A. the mobility decreases

  • A. the mobility decreases
  • B. the transconductance increases
  • C. the drain current increases
  • D. none of the above

Explanation

As FET temperature rises, carrier mobility decreases, reducing drain current for a given gate bias. This negative feedback prevents the positive-feedback process responsible for thermal runaway.
