1Key Takeaways

This part of IEC 60747 gives standards for the following categories of field-effect transistors: – type A: junction-gate type; – type B: insulated-gate depletion (normally on) type; – type C: insulated-gate enhancement (normally off) type. Since a field-effect transistor may have one or several gates, the classific…

2Scope / Description

This part of IEC 60747 gives standards for the following categories of field-effect transistors:
– type A: junction-gate type;
– type B: insulated-gate depletion (normally on) type;
– type C: insulated-gate enhancement (normally off) type.
Since a field-effect transistor may have one or several gates, the classification shown below
results:
NOTE 1 Schottky barrier-gate and insulated gate devices include depletion type devices and enhancement type
devices.
NOTE 2 MOSFETs for some applications may not have inverse diode characteristics in the data sheet. Special
circuit element structures to eliminate body diode are under development for such applications. MOSFET
applications such as motor control equipment need to specify the inverse diode characteristics in the MOSFET to
use the inverse diode as a free wheeling diode.
NOTE 3 The graphical symbol only for type C is used in this standard. The standard equally applies for P-channel
and for type A and B devices.
