Increasing VGS puts more charge in the channel, allowing more drain current to flow
Saturation Region
occurs at large VDS As the drain voltage increases, the difference in voltage between the drain and the gate becomes smaller. At some point, the difference is too small to maintain the channel near the drain pinch-off
