Question

Full form of MOSFET is ___________

(a) Metal oxide silicon field effect transistor

(b) Metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor

(c) Metal oxide settle field effect transistor

(d) Metal oriented silicon field effect transistor

The question was asked in an interview.

This is a very interesting question from Solid-State Switching Circuits topic in section Introduction to Solid-State Switching Circuits of Electric Drives

Answer 1

Correct choice is (b) Metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor

The best I can explain: MOSFET stands for Metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor. It is a three terminal device consists of source, drain, gate. It is a high switching device.
