When drain voltage equals the pinch-off-voltage, then drain current ___________ with the increase in drain voltage?
Correct answer: C. remains constant
- A. decreases
- B. increases
- C. remains constant
- D. none of the above
Explanation
At pinch-off, the JFET enters its saturation or constant-current region, where further increases in drain voltage produce nearly no increase in drain current. The current is then mainly controlled by the gate-source voltage.
