What is MOSFETs?

A MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) is a type of transistor widely used for switching and amplifying electronic signals in electronic devices. It works by varying the width of a channel along which charge carriers flow (electrons or holes) by applying a voltage to a gate electrode. This controls the current flow between the 'source' and 'drain' terminals. MOSFETs are commonly used in integrated circuits, power electronics, and digital logic circuits.
