mosfet region of operation
When a power MOSFET is used as a switch in switching application is it in linear (triode) region when it is on? I think this is so and it is unlike using a transistor as an amplifier in which case we want it to be in saturation correct? I just want to confirm that I understand the region of operation correctly for FETS is a switching regulator?
Thanks
