Abstract :
The noise figure of a m.e.s.f.e.t. is calculated as a function of drain current using the gradual channel approximation and the Shockley impedance-field technique. The results are conveniently presented as a single universal family of curves with no adjustable empirical factors. The analytical results are compared with those from a 2-dimensional computer simulation.
