Abstract

This simulation is designed to give users an interactive visual representation of how a MOSFET would work under different scenarios by asking for input from the user and plotting the resulting graph of drain current against drain voltage. By running simulations to answer a series of guided questions, users will gain a more intuitive feeling for the operation of a MOSFET.
