Gate Current in VLSI Fabrication Formulas

Gate Current is defined as when there is no voltage between the gate and source terminals, no current flows in the drain except leakage current, because of a very high drain-source impedance. And is denoted by i_g. Gate Current is usually measured using the Milliampere for Electric Current. Note that the value of Gate Current is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Gate Current?

Gate Current is defined as when there is no voltage between the gate and source terminals, no current flows in the drain except leakage current, because of a very high drain-source impedance. Gate Current is usually measured using the Milliampere for Electric Current. Note that the value of Gate Current is always positive.

Can the Gate Current be negative?

No, the Gate Current, measured in Electric Current cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Gate Current?

Gate Current is usually measured using the Milliampere[mA] for Electric Current. Ampere[mA], Microampere[mA], Centiampere[mA] are the few other units in which Gate Current can be measured.
