BS170 is a well-known N channel MOSFET manufactured in the TO-92 package. produced using Fairchild's proprietary high-density DMOS cell technology.
This ultra-high-density process is designed to minimize resistance in the state while providing robust, reliable, and fast switching performance.
It can be used for both switching and amplification purposes. When used as a switch it can drive a load of 500mA. It is able to perform fast switching and capable to switch load in around 7 nanoseconds due to which it can be used in high-speed circuits.
It can also perform well on low voltage due to which it is an ideal MOSFET to use in portable and battery-operated applications. Other than that it can also be used as an amplifier and you can use it in your audio amplifier circuits and also for any general-purpose signal amplification requirements.
It is also suitable for low voltage and low current applications such as small servo motor control, power MOSFET gate drivers, and other switching applications.

BS170 can be used for any general-purpose switching and amplification purposes, it can be used as a switch to drive loads under 500mA which is enough drain current to drive most of the relays, lamps, LEDs, etc. Additionally, it can also be used at the output of microcontrollers and platforms like Arduino and raspberry pi to drive loads.
On the other hand, it can also be used as an audio amplifier, in audio amplifier stages, low-level signal amplification, etc. Wiring the MOSFETs are almost the same as we wire BJT transistors. In MOSFETs, the Gate is used to control the transistor whereas in BJT it is Base, but the BJTs are current control devices and MOSFETs are voltage control devices. And the gate in MOSFETs requires a small amount of voltage to control current through its Drain to Source.
In this circuit, we are just turning ON/OFF an LED using BS170 n-channel MOSFET. Here, the Gate and Drain terminal is connected through a 5v DC source, and LED is connected to the Source. As the gate pulse is applied by turning ON the switch, MOSFET conducts current through Drain to Source, and LED starts glowing. LED remains ON until the gate pulse is applied. As the gate pulse is removed LED turns OFF.
