Why are the advantages of JFET over MOSFET, or why are JFET still used?


I saw JFET in an electret mic circuit, and it is quite recent, so I'm wondering why.


Since we are looking for the highest gate impedance, MOSFET would seem to be a better choice.


I've also read that JFET have got a flatter response because of a higher drain resistance. I don't even understand what the drain resistance is. Is it the source drain resistance? And what does it have to do with flattness?



And more generally, what are the advantages of JFET over MOSFET?

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
