In the ideal square-law saturation model of an enhancement nMOSFET, drain current is primarily proportional to?

  • AVGS only
  • B(VGS - VTH)^2
  • C1/VGS
  • DVDS^2 regardless of VGS

Correct Answer: B. (VGS - VTH)^2
Explanation: In the long-channel ideal saturation model, ID is proportional to the square of the overdrive voltage VGS - VTH, neglecting channel-length modulation.
