Which device family has the higher input impedance?

  • A.Field effect
  • B.Bipolar
  • C.They are comparable at the same current
  • D.It depends on the configuration rather than the family

Answer: A

Field effect devices win decisively: a MOSFET's gate is insulated and draws nothing, and a junction device's gate leaks only nanoamps, against a bipolar base current of microamps or more. The configuration does affect the figure, but not enough to close a gap of several orders of magnitude. That one comparison decides most choices between the families where the source is delicate.
