In Figure E6-1, which is the schematic symbol for a P-channel junction FET?

Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: A. 1
Symbol 1 is a JFET because the gate arrow touches the channel directly with no insulating gap. The arrow points outward, away from the channel, which marks P-channel. Symbol 6 points inward, so it is N-channel.
Tip: JFET arrow pointing out = P-channel.
