I am beginning to study JFETs . I want to limit this discussion to N channel JFETs and when I talk about current flow I mean conventional current flow.
Most of the sources that I have been studying use example where the gate-source junction is reversed biased and the voltage at the drain is positive with respect to the source and current flows from drain to source.
What if the gate-source junction is still reversed biased and the voltage at the drain is negative with respect to the source. Will current now flow from the source to the drain?
I have also read somewhere that on "some" JFETs, the source and drain connections are interchangeable while on others they are not. Is this true? If so, how do you know which ones will do this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
