MOS Theory SP

The document discusses MOSFET equations and circuits. It provides: 1) Equations for the three regions of operation (cut-off, linear, and saturation) of n-channel and p-channel MOSFETs. 2) Typical parameter values for the simplest MOSFET model in SPICE. 3) Examples of using the equations to solve for drain current and determine the operating region given voltages and transistor parameters.
