  • Abstract
    A novel method for reducing the turn-on time of a high side MOSFET power switch is presented. By discharging a loaded capacitor into the gate of the power switch, an important reduction of the turn-on time has been obtained. This driving method is compared with the classical case in which the gate is charged only by the charge pump block.
