  • Abstract
    Proposes an experimental method for the characterization of power MOS transistors. The method leads to a simplified model that was implemented in the SPICE program. The model represents accurately the switching performance of power MOSFET devices. Since the nonlinearities of the internal capacitances, have an important effect on the commutation behaviour of power MOS transistors, the model emphasizes such effects
