B. Inter electrode capacitance
C. Electrolytic capacitance
D. All of the mentioned

Answer: A

The parasitic device capacitances can be classified into two major groups: oxide-related capacitances and junction capacitances.

 

18. The capacitance that exists between Gate and Bulk is called ___________

A. Oxide parasitic capacitance
B. Metal oxide capacitance
C. MOS capacitance
D. None of the mentioned

19. In Cut-off Mode, the capacitance Cgs will be equal to ___________

A. 2Cgd
B. 0
C. Cgb
D. All of the mentioned

Answer: B

In cut-off mode, the conducting channel does not exist, so gate-to-source and the gate-to-drain capacitances are both equal to zero.

 

20. In cut-off mode, the value of gate to substrate capacitance is equal to ___________

A. Cox .(W- L)
B. Cox W/ L
C. Cox* W*L
D. 0

Answer: C

In Cut-off mode, the conducting channel does not exist, so gate-to-source and the gate-to-drain capacitances are both equal to zero. Therefore, the gate to substrate capacitance is equal to Cox* W*L.
