Answer A: Why there is a body diode in mosfets?
Diagram. Cross-section of a lateral N-channel MOSFET. Body diode shown. A MOSFET has its gate, source and drain on the top side [^1]. These structures are sitting on top of the substrate, which is also called body or bulk. The source and drain are n-doped, while the body is p-doped.[^2] There a...
