If I could make a suggestion: When teaching about something like this, where there are multiple versions of the same thing, I've found that it's incredibly helpful to go through use cases for the different versions. It's so much easier to understand and remember what something does, when you understand what problem it solves. In any case, thank you for yet another amazingly well produced and presented video.
@EngineeringMindset 2 місяці тому

@whynotdean8966 2 місяці тому
@@EngineeringMindsetAbsolutely, and the examples do highlight what the "normal" mosfet is used for, which is great. But the example doesn't show when or why you would use the different types. It might be outside the scope of a single video, and it's probably a ton of work to come up with a unique demonstration for each type. It's just something that worked for me when I was learning to program. When I didn't understand why a function worked like it did, I just had to find out which problem it was designed to solve.

Great video. Just wanted to point out at 10:50 and 11:15 that p and n type materials are neutral. The p is for holes(positive) majority carriers and n is for electrons(negative) majority carriers. Then when they both diffuse(movement due to concentration gradient) in opposite type material at p-n junction, then space charge region is formed.

@Pulverrostmannen 2 місяці тому
I could be good to mention the Body diode on mosfets are always there, And when you apply greater voltage on the source than drain the mosfet will always conduct no matter if the Gate is active or not. Also that the gate to source voltage is what turns the mosfet on and if you have it configured in a way that the source voltage can be different than 0 Volts such as when you have a load in the path to ground you must add up that voltage to keep the gate on otherwise the mosfet turns off again. this could happen in the reversing motor example in the video. also that you can have 2 different sources of voltages to go around this problem in example using a driver transformer for switching applications. I could talk mosfets all day
@mattn5011 2 місяці тому
Came to the comments to see if I was the only one. This is a more thorough explanation than I normally see, so I was hoping to see those details. Never really understood why that diode is there until I saw him add that wire to the body. Would have been nice to see that covered.
@Pulverrostmannen 2 місяці тому
@@mattn5011 yeah. This body diode in mosfets are not really added by choice but it is a part of what makes a mosfet what it is. Due to the specific doping of materials you gain this diode in one direction of the chip. Sometimes you have avalanche rated body diodes and sometimes not. But you can in certain types of operation use these as snubber networks too
