Semiconductor Training: Threshold Voltage

Threshold voltage is the minimum voltage that must be applied to the gate of a MOSFET (metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor) before it begins to conduct current between its source and drain terminals.

In simple terms, it is the “switch-on” voltage of the transistor. Below this voltage, the device remains off because there are not enough charge carriers to form a conductive channel.

Once the gate voltage exceeds the threshold voltage, a channel is created, allowing current to flow and the transistor to operate as intended.
