'''MOSFET''' ('''Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect-Transistor''') or '''IGFET''' ('''Insulated-Gate Field-Effect Transistor''') is a type of [[Field-effect transistor]] which utilizes an insulator (such as [[wikipedia:Silicon dioxide|SiO<sub>2</sub>]]) between the gate and the body. Today, MOSFET is the most common type of [[transistor]] for both digital and analog circuits. Because originally the [[controlling gate|gate]] was made from metal, the name metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) got stuck. Today, the gates are made of polycrystalline sillicon although in recent years, advancements technology reintroduced metallic gates in order to solve various performance issues. | '''MOSFET''' ('''Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect-Transistor''') or '''IGFET''' ('''Insulated-Gate Field-Effect Transistor''') is a type of [[Field-effect transistor]] which utilizes an insulator (such as [[wikipedia:Silicon dioxide|SiO<sub>2</sub>]]) between the gate and the body.
