Mathematical Model
The current in N-JFET due to a small voltage VDS is given by:
where
- IDSS = drain-source saturation current
- 2a = channel thickness
- W = width
- L = length
- q = electronic charge = 1.6 x 10-19 C
- μn = electron mobility
- Nd = n type doping concentration
In the saturation region:
In the linear region
or (in terms of ):
where is the pinch off voltage, the minimum voltage across G-S to completely turn off conduction. When is small compared with -, the device acts like a voltage controlled resistor.

Famous quotes containing the words mathematical and/or model:
“All science requires mathematics. The knowledge of mathematical things is almost innate in us.... This is the easiest of sciences, a fact which is obvious in that no one’s brain rejects it; for laymen and people who are utterly illiterate know how to count and reckon.”
—Roger Bacon (c. 1214–c. 1294)
“When Titian was mixing brown madder,
His model was posed up a ladder.
Said Titian, “That position
Calls for coition,”
So he lept up the ladder and had her.”
—Anonymous.
