Field effect transistors (FETs) are widely used in most applications today. This is due to their excellent characteristics of high gain, low thermal resistance, good noise immunity, low power consumption and reliable operation. The FQA35N40 is one such FET, being a N-channel enhancement mode MOSFET designed for low voltage, low power applications. Knowing its application field and working principle is important in properly incorporating the FQA35N40 into any device or system.

The FQA35N40 is suitable for applications ranging from very small to medium power circuits in both DC and AC conditions. It is typically used for drive, switching, and amplifier circuits with a power range of 0.2W to 5W, and a voltage range of 30V to 40V. This FET also has a wide off-state resistance making it suitable for applications such as motor and solenoid drivers and low current switches. Additionally, the FQA35N40 is one of the few FETs capable of operating at very high frequencies of up to 200 kHz, and can handle up to 500mA current.

The operating principle behind the FQA35N40 is the same basic principle behind any FET: current flow is controlled by voltage, rather than by current. In the FQA35N40, this is accomplished by varying the voltage of the gate-source. When the gate-source voltage is equal to the threshold voltage, the device will be in its off-state, in which the drain-source current is zero. As the gate-source voltage is increased exponentially, the drain-source resistance will decrease, allowing current to flow and amplifying the source voltage. The source voltage is then amplified proportionally by the 1000x current gain of the FQA35N40, resulting in an output voltage of up to 40V.

To use the FQA35N40, the drain and source pins must be connected to the source of power and the load, respectively. The gate-source must then be connected to a voltage source, either directly from the power supply or through an amplifier. The voltage can then be used to control the on-state or off-state of the FET. It is important to note that the FQA35N40 is a sensitive device and excessive voltage or current can cause it to be damaged.

In summary, the FQA35N40 is an N-channel enhancement mode MOSFET designed for low voltage and low power applications. Its wide range of voltage and power make it suitable for a variety of applications, particularly those involving current switching and high frequency drive circuits. The operating principle of the FQA35N40 is based on the premise that the drain-source resistance is controlled by the gate-source voltage, with higher voltages providing greater control. Proper usage requires carefully connecting the gate-source to a voltage source, remembering not to exceed the safe voltage and current ratings for the FET.
