This paper provides details of MOSFET switching action in applications with clamped inductive load, when used as a secondary synchronous rectifier, and driving pulse/gate drive transformers. Potential ...

A recent problem with oscillation in a MOSFET gate driver had an engineer scrambling to find a solution to avoid shutting the production line down. It was hoped that reviewing the board design would ...

Sam Davis was the editor-in-chief of Power Electronics Technology magazine and website that is now part of Electronic Design. He has 18 years experience in electronic engineering design and management ...

Power Integrations is sampling a family of plug-and-play gate drivers for 62 mm SiC MOSFET and silicon IGBT modules rated up to 1700 V, with enhanced protection features to ensure safe, reliable ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In some situations, it becomes necessary to drive a MOSFET (or IGBT) with a voltage that’s lower than its ...

Having thought up and simulated a drive circuit for the synchronous rectifier in a Cuk converter, I thought I would wrap it all up by appling the things I learned to the original circuit – a high-side ...

Resonant gate drivers are not generally used in commercially available converters, due to the perceived additional complexity. However, there are some striking advantages over conventional gate ...

(Bipolar Junction) Transistors versus MOSFETs: both have their obvious niches. FETs are great for relatively high power applications because they have such a low on-resistance, but transistors are ...

This module covers the fundamental ideas underlying design of modern digital systems. This module explains the basis of circuit elements, how they are interconnected to form digital circuits and also ...

KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has started mass production of "TB9103FTG," a gate driver IC [1] for automotive brushed DC motors, ...
