Before revision: "Sedra and Smith, Microelectronic Circuits, Fifth Edition, (2004) Chapter 4, ISBN 978-0-19-533883-6 Overdrive voltage can be found using the simple equation: VOV = VGS - Vt. Technology VOV is important as it directly affects the output drain terminal current (ID) of the transistor, an important property of amplifier circuits.
