This is certainly one of the clearest explanations. Most people on youtube gloss right over the significance of the gate electric field and how it enables conduction as an N-channel. And they usually spend too much time describing the depletion layers.
Well in layman terms it's like a faucet, the more the tap is opened (gate), the more water (electricity) flows between the source and the drain (faucet outlet). ;)
hey thanks man. i suffered very much because i am not able to understand what the structure of mosfet is after seeing this video i got the idea and ur presentation is superb.
Thank you for the background music, I am now prepared to fulfill my destiny in a slow-motion battle scene. The transistor stuff was pretty cool as well.
Simple and exact explanation. Just perfect! However I was wondering if you would ever do a video on how both BJT and MOSFET can be used as amplifiers. That would be just amazing lol
First Of All, Thanks to the Maker/Makers For the Animation. Me Not Being From Electronic Background, have some Question- Why is Electrons Not Flowing From Source To Gate, Why Only Movement is From Source to Drain.? Is it Due to the Fact that Potential Difference of Gate is Equal to PD of Souce? Or Because The Electrons Entering the Gate from Source are Neutralise by the Positive Charge Carriers(Or Something Represented By + Sign) at Gate Terminals? Looking Forward. Thanks Again
Hi Thomas, It is a nice video but the explination is te simple to be 100% true. In Razavi book "Fundamentals of Microelectronics" , you will find the real working principle which is realy interesting. With kind Regards, Dlovan
Nice video. But it should include when/how a mosfet turns off in my opinion. Also questions, are drain and source swappable? Does a mosfet carry current both ways when on? Thanks.
Dear Thomas, I am teaching the fundamentals of electronics to graduate students of neuroengineering. Would you care if I used still images of your video in my slides? Of course, due credit would be given.
Two questions: 1) What attracts electrons to move from the gate to the drain 02:58? 2) Isn't it that in reality the moving electrons take the place of the ones in the gate while the ones in the gate are constantly pushed to the right? In 2:58 it is shown as if they were passing on top of them, rather than pushing them sideway.s
So that's how overclocking works as you increase the positive voltage more current flows in causing more heat generation and so you should buy a custom CPU cooler for that i5 or i7 CPU. GREAT!! :)

Electrical engineering student, thankyou for this awesomely simplified video describing the variable current flow functionality of a NPN.
THIS VIDEO IS 9 YEARS BACK FROM TODAY. THE GREAT ANIMATION.
the only guy that adds music to an explanation to make it so intense
Wonderfully explained! Especially @ 2:18 , your passion + the theme song made it seem as if you were the last electrical engineer on earth.
Hahaha.
😂
😂😂😂
Fascinating. I knew 'how' they worked but now 'How' they worked, and this was very informative!
Thank you for your video.
The music really makes this video 999x more epic and attention holding. Great job.
Encore! Encore! One of the best electronics video's in a long while but too short!
most clear explanation i have seen on youtube. Thank you!
Just came here to say that
Excellent animation. Greetings from Canada. I shall share this video with my students.
Yes, please feel free to do so :)
I'm just curious: Are you a professor? :)
Thomas Schwenke I am an engineer. I have been a professor, then left academia for industry. Now I am back at teaching.
You are an excellent engineer yourself. I love your videos, but I just wish I could ask you a ton of questions about them.
Mr +rolinychupetin I love your videos, I wish I was one of your students.
God bless you! I've gone to class several times, and I still couldn't understand. Just watching your video once, it all makes sense. Thank you!
The best video for Mosfet I ve ever watched
I would like to thank you for making this video in understandable way
Clear explanation, no water. Thanks for that!
Nice animation on the functioning of MOSFET !
First time i understood what a mosfet is...and how it works...thanks.
Well in layman terms it's like a faucet, the more the tap is opened (gate), the more water (electricity) flows between the source and the drain (faucet outlet). ;)
9 years ago and still very relevant.
Super cool graphic about the forming of the channel. That made a lot of sense.
hey thanks man. i suffered very much because i am not able to understand what the structure of mosfet is after seeing this video i got the idea and ur presentation is superb.
this video can't be any better , thanks
Thank you for the background music, I am now prepared to fulfill my destiny in a slow-motion battle scene.
The transistor stuff was pretty cool as well.
Thanks alot :)
the music made me feel as a superhero understanding deep stuff. lol...nice video !
Looking forward to seeing a video explaining BJT transistor ! Nice work !
Boring people.. Forget the music! The explanation is the point!!!!!!!
Wonderful explanation, Excellent animation!
have watched several of your videos. I really enjoy them. Have made me a bit wiser on the subject of transistors :)
That's a neat short video that helps a lot! Thank you sir.
explains better than hours of OU material
Simple and exact explanation. Just perfect! However I was wondering if you would ever do a video on how both BJT and MOSFET can be used as amplifiers. That would be just amazing lol
Окка
Good presentation, I'll use this for may class in Petone, New Zealand.
best explanation I've seen
great vid, converting this vid to:
"Perci the Bandicoot Telling about MOSFETs"
Well, everyone has his reason :)
Song name is "Translation". You can search and purchase it via audiojungle.
Great Animation and very helpful, Thanks!
This would of made it easier to understand at school. Thanks!
Concise and informative. Thank you for the excellent video.
thanks a lot!!!! such a great animation and a short video
the intro is so motivational 😂
The captions confused me a little, otherwise this explanation was exactly what I needed. :)
UA-cam captions have always been hilariously inaccurate. XD
Brilliant animation!
Fantastic video!
Very Complete thank you (also from Canada)
An excellent presentation, will use it again in 2017
nice animation and overall a very good
video
am i the only one who finds the background music destructive?
Yes :)
I like it!
yes :-)
I found the background music better than most -- that is blends into the background and enhances the presentation. It was not a distraction for me.
shut up
Perhaps in the future ... now, however, there are other really important projects :)
this is an epic video like I'm witnessing a new discovery
this video is dope
+mbisetakobana or you can say "highly doped" :D
Swat Boy stole the words right outta my mouth😂😅
very interesting and quiet simple to understand
FETs are so epic in this video...
thank you. it helped me for better undertanding
Excellent video
Thank you for the video! It is very understandable! Cheers!!
Now this was helpful, thanks!
That what's supposed to do... this animation. Thanks for your comment!
Nicely explained.. Thanx a lot for this video..
THE BEST VIDEO
Great video thanks
This video is in my wattle, the music is so great!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
Simply Awesome 👍
Great animation! On a different subject, what program did you use to make it? Thanks!
Hi, I use Carrara 8 Pro.
Thomas Schwenke Thank you!!
Great explanation , thanks alot
LOVE the video!!!

This one is awesome!!!
Nice animation :)
Thank you very much :)
GREAT CHANNEL THANKS
Nice video. But it should include when/how a mosfet turns off in my opinion. Also questions, are drain and source swappable? Does a mosfet carry current both ways when on? Thanks.
Honestly a great video, maybe want some less distracting music.
Excellent :) God Bless You
why does it sound like the final battle of a lone spartan vs 100 guys when all you're doing is explaining what a mosfet is
nice animation
great illustration thx sir
sehr gut erklärt!
Dankeschön!
Bitte schön :)
Nice video indeed but won't the electrons repel each other wen flowing thru bulk under the drain?
Sir excellent video. what animation tool you use for creating animation
This was done in Carrara 8.5 Pro
very nicely explained (y)
amazing video
short and amazing 😍
Ss
Great Work.....
Thank's Sir a great explanation on movement of Electron in N type Region really really Thank'a
much better than my shitty lecture notes
Nice vedio with nice music
Good video.
Great video....
Very helpful thank you...
Dear Thomas, I am teaching the fundamentals of electronics to graduate students of neuroengineering. Would you care if I used still images of your video in my slides? Of course, due credit would be given.
which software are you using to create a 3D view?
Amazing!
Two questions:
1) What attracts electrons to move from the gate to the drain 02:58?
2) Isn't it that in reality the moving electrons take the place of the ones in the gate while the ones in the gate are constantly pushed to the right? In 2:58 it is shown as if they were passing on top of them, rather than pushing them sideway.s
So, what's wrong then?
Thank you!
Its easy to design in Autodesk Maya and animate this in After Effects / Premiere Pro.
did they invent MOSFET or BJT first?
Thanks a lot! :)
So that's how overclocking works as you increase the positive voltage more current flows in causing more heat generation and so you should buy a custom CPU cooler for that i5 or i7 CPU. GREAT!! :)
Brilliant
