5. P-type Transistor

  • Works in exactly the opposite fashion from the N-type transistor.

  • When gate is supplied with 0 volts, we have closed circuit like a wire between the source and the drain.

  • When the gate is supplied 2.9 volts, P-type transistor acts like an open circuit with broken connection.

  • Common P-type transistor circuit symbols:

      JFET P-channel transistor
