MCQ Practice Question

For high-frequency low-to-medium voltage switching, a power MOSFET is often preferred because of its?

  • AFast switching capability
  • BNeed for continuous gate current
  • CLatching behavior like an SCR
  • DVery slow turn-off
Report an error
Correct Answer: A. Fast switching capability
Explanation: Power MOSFETs are majority-carrier devices and can switch rapidly, making them useful at relatively high switching frequencies.
