Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor, abbreviated as MOSFET, is a field-effect transistor widely used in analog and digital circuits.
According to the polarity of its channel (operating carriers), MOSFETs are divided into N-type and P-type, commonly known as NMOSFET and PMOSFET, with other abbreviations such as NMOS and PMOS.
  1. A field-effect transistor is a voltage-controlled device, while a bipolar junction transistor is a current-controlled device.
     
    Field-effect transistors should be used when only a small current draw from the signal source is allowed;
     
    bipolar transistors should be used when the signal voltage is low and a larger current draw is permitted.
     
  2. The source and drain of some FETs are interchangeable, and the gate voltage can be either positive or negative, offering greater flexibility than bipolar transistors.
     
  3. FETs conduct using majority carriers only and are therefore called unipolar devices.
     
    Bipolar junction transistors use both majority and minority carriers and are thus called bipolar devices.
     
  4. FETs can operate at very low currents and voltages, and their manufacturing process allows easy integration of many FETs onto a single silicon chip.
     
    For this reason, FETs are widely used in large-scale integrated circuits.
