Question
the gate-to-source voltage of an n-channel jfet must be negative.
select one:
○ true
○ false
For an n - channel JFET, the gate - to - source voltage ($V_{GS}$) is typically negative. This is because the n - channel JFET operates by reverse - biasing the gate - source junction (the gate is made of p - type material and the channel is n - type for an n - channel JFET, so a negative $V_{GS}$ reverse - biases the p - n junction between gate and source, which is necessary for controlling the channel conductance). So the statement is true.
