No it is not. It is for Ultimate PROs can understand as he said. It means if you have no idea about electronics like a PRO you, you can not understand.
The disc in the pipe analogy should not have a spring because the gate on the MOSFET acts like a capacitor. Circuit designers usually add springs using pull down or pull up resistors.
@@August301989 Yes it can. The way to prevent this is to use a high resistance resistor (usually 10k or close) connected to the gate and source. It is called a pull up resistor on a p-channel MOSFET, or a pull down resistor on an N-channel MOSFET.
Correction, there are 4 types of mosfets. You even mentioned them in the video, but for some reason you said there were only 2. Enhancement and depletion just says if they are normally open or normally closed, while n-channel and p-channel tells you if they are activated by a positive or negative voltage compared to the source pin
@@Mulakulu You are right. Dual gate mosfets were popular in the 70s for mixers, RF and IF amplifiers. They are not used much anymore. The second gate was used to control the gain or to inject the local oscillator. A very easy to use part similar to a tetrode or pentode vacuum tube.
MOSFETs are more efficient than other types of transistors and 10 to 60 times faster than them. Also, it can be miniaturized better to put in a chip. But they are also more delicate to electromagnetic pulses and electrostatic discharges. Even so, we made our civilization to work around this delicate technology because there are no better options, they represent now 70% of semiconductor's market.
Incorrect; MOSFETs are not fundamentally faster than other sorts of transistors. Bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and HEMTs both have higher fundamental frequencies than FETs. You're right about extreme miniaturization though; it's much easier to make a bunch of small MOSFETs than BJTs, and due to their lack of DC gate conduction, they're better for tasks like memory and processing.
I've known of, and used occasionally, MOSFETS but honestly this was the first time this was explained extremely well and concisely the two (main) types of MOSFET you'll encounter. ❤
For fucks sake why can't schools be as informative. It's my 3rd year in an electronics-based highschool (best in town) and the teachers cannot explain stuff like this in 45 minutes while you do it in under a minute
The spring in the water analogy diagram seems worng. If you remove the voltage, the channel will remain open as it's controlled by charge which will stay in the gate until you remove it (eg. by shorting to the source pin)
Incorrect. The signal you apply to the gate is a voltage. The upstream circuit does not apply and remove a voltage. It applies a positive voltage to turn on the Source-Drain path, and applies a different voltage, zero volts, to turn it off. (Assuming an N-Channel enhancement mode MOSFET example.)
Best analog for mosfet is ball valve U apply voltage to the gate and let the gate alone -it remains open until u not discharge the gate No spring effect U need to discharge gate to 0
Thank you very much. Your explanation and demonstration of both real life and illustration are very helpful. This channel is a blessed for electronic learners.😃
I spent countless hours at Fairchild Semi back in the 70's and 80's learning how these things worked. here's a video short explaining it all in a few minutes.

Mosfet has been around for sometime and very common in computers and other electronic devices. If computer is malfunctioning, mosfet could be the culprit but not always.
This is just like a plot operated valve in hydraulics. We call it normally open (N/O) for valves for flow when pressure applied and normally closed (N/C) for closed in the rest position. That is a lot easier than what they come up with.
I’m in a class for how to design and manufacture these chips and the short clip of the p-type region is a very helpful visualization. You should do a video on fermi levels!
Very concise and easily understood information
This is why the Brits called vacuum tubes "valves", because that's how they work.
Ojalá pronto se pueda escuchar en español, es interesante , muchas gracias por la explicación
Ditto, thanks.
No it is not. It is for Ultimate PROs can understand as he said. It means if you have no idea about electronics like a PRO you, you can not understand.
As is the answer in most of electronics: just read the data sheet it’ll tell you how it works (most of the time)
Unless it only exist in chinese and you didn't learned chinese, then good luck
@@naomie2680 ikr..
RTFM
@@naomie2680 indeed. Thats why I said most of the time
@@bignamek I don’t know what that means
Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (off the top of my head). This was the first acronym I learned in college in 1988 😀
Haha, I've just posted the same. It's stuck in my head too and it was about 88/89 when I learned it.
one month strong here
Thanks :-)
Thanks for that.
I learned about bipolar junction transistors first at my school.
best explanation of what a mosfet is ever and been watching electronic videos for a decade now
The disc in the pipe analogy should not have a spring because the gate on the MOSFET acts like a capacitor. Circuit designers usually add springs using pull down or pull up resistors.
So you mean once its on and voltage is removed it will keep on?
@@August301989 That's right, the mosfet will remain on until the gate capacitance is discharged
@@mfr04 so a static charge from my finger can turn it on. How you can prevent that?
@@August301989 Yes it can.
The way to prevent this is to use a high resistance resistor (usually 10k or close) connected to the gate and source.
It is called a pull up resistor on a p-channel MOSFET, or a pull down resistor on an N-channel MOSFET.
Yeah I was thinking of saying that. Without a pull down a fet can stay active
I LOVE this channel. Thank you!
I LOVE you

2 variants each of 2 types
@@WerewolfMaster type and variant are synonyms. We agree though. 2x2=4
There are also dual gate mosfets.
@@gordonwelcher9598 I guess I set an arbitrary limit of "the most important types to know about", but sure

That pn junction animation was all I needed. Very clear to understand. Thank you so much!
but idk why i cant understand its like a switch for on off may be bro?😢
@carneum5128 it's like an electronic switch. You control it by supplying a small current
MOSFET stands for metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor.
Transistor*
@@castleanthrax1833 you're right, ty. Sorry for the wrong word there.

No spring effect
U need to discharge gate to 0
Wow.. excellent tutorial, easy to learn

❤❤best explanation ever
Very informative video
Learned about mosfets when I started airsoft/gelsoft
Thanks this was useful information I didnt realize the positive negative pressure possibility.
Best illustration ive seen so far
Good explanation.
After almost 5 years, a short finally explained me how it works easier than my teacher
If you liked that, check the full tutorial. Sooo much more info, even worked examples. Link bottom left
Thanks for that information about the types of the mosfet 😊
that neat little water pipe diagram you used is actually exactly how some hydraulic systems regulate flow.
Proud to work for IR now Infineon. The semiconductor company that made the MOSFET pictured in this short.
Fantastic animation. Makes it simple to understand. Thank you for your hard work. ❤

I love seeing inside of electronic stuff
توضیح عالی❤❤❤
that is good video with good visualazitaion
So basically, it's a big transistor that handles more current.
It's a type of transistor, but it works differently. Sell the full tutorial for worked example, link bottom left

Insightful and concsied
Wow, thank you for the simplicity of the MOSFET
I love informational CZcams shorts.❤
A fair substitute for thermic vacuum tubes in guitar amplifiers.
And N-type enhancement are by far the most common type used by hobbyists.
this can be the best visualization you can find to explain it.
You make it so easy to grasp, better than my teacher at college 😅 👍🏼
Beautifully explained
Very cool information, thanks 👍

I need more shorts like this in my feed.
This is explained super good. The sound could be better though!
Very Good informative
This is my favorite way I’ve seen transistors described tysm
perfectly illustrated and explained.
that was easy to understand. Ty
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘😘 lovely explanation
Taught better than past professors 🙈
WAIT
He realy lasered all of the plastic perfectly away to show us the inside? That's crazy genius but still over the top for such a video.
Do inductors next!
This far better than learn on school
First read this on Pioneer HU's of the '90s 😊
Thank you for clear explanation ❤
Simple and elegant!
I am like to see more from this channel... 💥
Thank you for a brilliant explanation
Thank you for helping me learn anything I can that’s relevant to what I’m trying to invent.
What is your invention and how is progress ?
Okay. That's Depletion vs. Enhancement Types, also P- vs. N- Channel MOSFETs explained in a *very concise* way. I can memorize that!
Covered in the full tutorial, please see link bottom left or check out out main videos
I’ve got confused exactly half second before he said you can’t get confused 🤦🏻♂️😩😂😂😂😅

Some1 like this in like 5 months when my nanotechnology module starts, i saw my older sis studying bout this and this vid would really help
"Check the datasheet"
I don't know who's not checking the datasheet but they must be a genius.
Well made and very informative. Wish I could have given it 2 thumbs up. Bravo! Do you have any vids on vacuum tubes (valves)?
Great explanation on n using a semiconductor as a gate.
Very helpful
Now I know why my day light sensor circuit doesn’t work and only turns on the light in the day
Best explanation ever?
BEAUTIFUL ANIMATION
You have taught me sooo much bro , thanks. Love ur vids 👍
And that's how we make a logic circuit, and a CPU uses billions and billions of them
Excellent!
Valve example of a mosfet is t spring loaded, you need to add the “spring” by adding a pull down resistor since it have gate charge
I understand the idea not have never heard it put so simply.
Yeah check the DATA sheet, it's too late when you "let the smoke out"!
Love your vids
Crazy how some of these things work. And yet unfortunately radioshack is gone so we can no longer buy small electronics for playing around on a whim
What kind of MOSFET do you recommend for beginners?
Please see the full mosfet tutorial on our channel
Im going to take a whole ass class just to understand the drawing. Lol
I love this channel ❤
Nice
Wise my professors in college taught me this way 😢

Can you please a short like this about elecrical relays?
These can protect control circuits in industry and home
They need to make them so you can test them without removing them especially in solar inverters
Good explanation.We are professional diode factory.
I wish my teachers were that clear 🤣
If I'm understanding correctly, it's essentially a type of relay, correct?
Audio is a quite quiet compared to other videos, make sure to check your audio levels.
Its just a FET to be precise as compared to a BJT.
Hmm....... sounds a lot like a Minecraft Capacitor on subtraction mode
