Abstract :
A computer-aided modelling procedure for power MOSFET switching convertors is reported. Results show dynamic turn-on and turn-off device waveforms, peak stresses, switching trajectory and transient switching losses. Excellent agreement is demonstrated between predicted and measured switching characteristics on an experimental high-frequency high-efficiency convertor.
