It is the fastest growing of any silicon-based transistor technology because of its use in computer microprocessors. MOSFETs (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field-effect Transistor) are used for amplifying or switching electronic signals.
The principles behind the MOSFET transistors go back to the early 1920’s when it was first patented. By the 1950’s, Bell Telephone tried to patent a similar transistor and found a patent already belonged to Julius Edgar Lilienfeld, whose patent covered all types of transistors. A deal was reached where Bell Labs version was given the name, Bipolar Junction Transistor, or simply Junction Transistor, and Lilienfeld’s design took the name, Field Effect Transistor. MOSFETs are used in both digital and analog technologies.
The “metal” in the name is a bit misleading as these days, as the materials used in MOSFETs are no longer aluminum, as was used up until the 1970s, but silicon.
Today, the rapid growth of the technology has made it harder to find the MOSFET you might be in the market for because as soon as they come out, they can be as quickly rendered obsolete. Luckily, there are a number of place you can go to buy MOSFETs online. Vendors buy and sell used and surplus MOSFETs, that work just as well and are more affordable than buying MOSFETS straight from the manufacturer.
If you are an electronics component company looking to buy MOSFETs online, visit IC Plus. IC Plus is the industry leader in selling MOSFETs online. IC Plus has an easy-to-use and electronic parts database that allows you to search and find the specific transistors you are hoping to buy, whether that’s digital or analog compatible MOSFETs.
IC Plus, not only provides one of the best quality service approaches to obsolete and hard to find components, we also provide a wide array of services. And once you find the MOSFET you are in the market for, IC Plus has the capability, in most cases, to ship your product to you the very next day. So if you’re looking to buy MOSFET online, you can’t go wrong contacting IC Plus. IC Plus guaranties all its products, as each electronic component that comes to IC Plus is tested and reviewed through our 72 point review process. If you buy MOSFET online from IC Plus and aren’t happy for any reason, we will offer you a 30-day, money-back guarantee on your online order.
If you are an electronic components company with surplus MOSFET inventory, consider selling MOSFETs online through IC Plus. IC Plus has a painless transaction process and offers you a number of ways to sell your surplus electronic parts through lot purchases, on-site consignment or off-site consignment. So if you are looking to sell your MOSFET surplus to make room for your new inventory, selling to IC Plus is a simple way to rid yourself of excess inventory. IC Plus also offers options for you to keep your surplus MOSFET inventory at your own site while we use our extensive network of electronic component buyers to find suitable buyers for your surplus MOSFETs.
