Fg(on) 18 & measurement which describ
resistance of the channel in series with so
resistance. Thi measurement is of prime imp
only for switching and chopper applications. This is
measured most accurately (Seo Figure 4) by setting all
terminals at 0 Vdes then apply an 20 voltage from drain
to source and gates and measure ac current flow. ‘The
‘magnitude of the peak ac voltage should not exceed about
a1 mos Vgg (as desoribed in the drain current section
of this report); 1.e., there shouldbe no pinch off occurring
{in the channel. Insulated gate FETS may be measured
with de gate bias in the enhancement mode,
DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS
Junetion FETs and insulated gate FETs behave essen-
‘tally the same for small signal parameter testing so they
will be considered together for the remainder of the
paper. Test conditions require all of these moasure-
ments to be made at the same voltage that Ipgg Was
measured at (Type A and B) unless otherwise speeitied.
Figures (5-10) show methods of measurement for these
parameters,
