Gate-Source Voltage Calculator

The Gate Source Voltage of a FET transistor is the voltage applied across the gate-source terminal of the transistor. This Calculator calculates the Gate-Source voltage of a MOSFET in terms of Input Voltage, Transconductance, and the value of the Series Resistor.

The Gate Source Voltage is very important because it is the voltage that is responsible for turning ON and OFF a MOSFET. The MOSFET turns on when the gate-source voltage higher than the rated gate threshold voltage, is applied. The drain-source on-state resistance is larger than the rated value when the gate voltage is around the threshold voltage because the channel is insufficiently formed. When increasing the gate-source voltage, it including the surge voltage should be within the absolute maximum rating.
