Threshold voltage - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

For MOSFET it is the transition point between weak inversion and square law behavior.

For Bipolar it equals KT/q. About 26mV at room temp.
