  I&apos;m happy for this video, it&apos;s nice to have a simple explanation of JFETs. I&apos;ve got a bachelor&apos;s and most of a master&apos;s in electrical engineering, and have never used JFETs.<br><br>The education on them was basically: They&apos;re not used that much, don&apos;t worry about it for now.

  Thank you. &nbsp;For people who are setting out on their electronics journey, being able to benefit from experience, explanation of practical considerations and clarity of explanation is invaluable ... and much appreciated. &nbsp;Top work.

  Good stuff. JFETs are still pretty common in audio effect circuits often as a solid state alternative to vacuum tubes. A lot of op-amps have a FET input as well. In both cases they are very easy to destroy with ESD so it&apos;s worthwhile having some protection on the gate in your circuit design.

  This channel is really the top notch when it comes to exploration of circuit design and theory. One thing that is somewhat frustrating if new to electronics is understanding how to read datasheets and their graphs. Really well explained and useful. Good job

  The internet needed this :) Have been designing a jfet based audio compressor this week, just for shits and giggles, and i really stuggled with tuning in the jfets. This is s very intuitive breakdown. I wish you had uploaded it sooner :,) Thanks!

  Gonna try to remember to watch this tomorrow. For the moment I only know that they are good as inputs to amplifiers in some situations, and that they can be set up to be nearly ohmic as voltage controlled resistors. &nbsp; Edit: 2 years later and I&apos;m now doing significant more work with JFETS. Funny, I didn&apos;t notice I left this old comment.
