Question A-002-004-003

Why are special precautions necessary in handling FET and CMOS devices?

Correct Answer

They are susceptible to damage from static charges

Explanation

Field-Effect Transistors (FETs) and Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) devices have very high gate input impedance, making them vulnerable to damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD).
