For n-JFET, the channel is a/an __________ channel and gates are __________.

The correct answer is option 1):(N type; P type)

Concept:

• The schematic of an n-channel JFET along with its circuit symbol is shown in Figure
• The n-channel JFET has its major portion made of n-type semiconductors.
• The mutually-opposite two faces of this bulk material are from the source and the drain terminals.
• There are two relatively-small p-regions embedded into this substrate which are internally joined together to form the gate terminal
• Thu the source and the drain terminals are of n-type while the gate is of p-type.
• For n-JFET, the channel is a N-type channel and gates are P type
• Due to this, two pn junctions will be formed within the device, whose analysis reveals the mode in which the JFET works
