N–Channel Enhancement–Mode Silicon Gate
This advanced TMOS E–FET is designed to withstand high
energy in the avalanche and commutation modes. The new energy
efficient design also offers a drain–to–source diode with a fast
recovery time. Designed for low voltage, high speed switching
applications in power supplies, converters and PWM motor
controls, these devices are particularly well suited for bridge circuits
where diode speed and commutating safe operating areas are
critical and offer additional safety margin against unexpected
voltage transients.

POWER MOSFET SWITCHING
Switching behavior is most easily modeled and predicted
by recognizing that the power MOSFET is charge controlled.
The lengths of various switching intervals (∆t) are deter-
mined by how fast the FET input capacitance can be charged
by current from the generator.
The published capacitance data is difficult to use for calculat-
ing rise and fall because drain–gate capacitance varies
greatly with applied voltage. Accordingly, gate charge data is
used. In most cases, a satisfactory estimate of average input
current (IG(AV)) can be made from a rudimentary analysis of
the drive circuit so that
t = Q/IG(AV)
During the rise and fall time interval when switching a resis-
tive load, VGS remains virtually constant at a level known as
the plateau voltage, VSGP. Therefore, rise and fall times may
be approximated by the following:
tr = Q2 x RG/(VGG – VGSP)
tf = Q2 x RG/VGSP
where
VGG = the gate drive voltage, which varies from zero to VGG
RG = the gate drive resistance
and Q2 and VGSP are read from the gate charge curve.
During the turn–on and turn–off delay times, gate current is
not constant. The simplest calculation uses appropriate val-
ues from the capacitance curves in a standard equation for
voltage change in an RC network. The equations are:
td(on) = RG Ciss In [VGG/(VGG – VGSP)]
td(off) = RG Ciss In (VGG/VGSP)
The capacitance (Ciss) is read from the capacitance curve at
a voltage corresponding to the off–state condition when cal-
culating td(on) and is read at a voltage corresponding to the
on–state when calculating td(off).
At high switching speeds, parasitic circuit elements com-
plicate the analysis. The inductance of the MOSFET source
lead, inside the package and in the circuit wiring which is
common to both the drain and gate current paths, produces a
voltage at the source which reduces the gate drive current.
The voltage is determined by Ldi/dt, but since di/dt is a func-
tion of drain current, the mathematical solution is complex.
The MOSFET output capacitance also complicates the
mathematics. And finally, MOSFETs have finite internal gate
resistance which effectively adds to the resistance of the
driving source, but the internal resistance is difficult to mea-
sure and, consequently, is not specified.
The resistive switching time variation versus gate resis-
tance (Figure 9) shows how typical switching performance is
affected by the parasitic circuit elements. If the parasitics
were not present, the slope of the curves would maintain a
value of unity regardless of the switching speed. The circuit
used to obtain the data is constructed to minimize common
inductance in the drain and gate circuit loops and is believed
readily achievable with board mounted components. Most
power electronic loads are inductive; the data in the figure is
taken with a resistive load, which approximates an optimally
snubbed inductive load. Power MOSFETs may be safely op-
erated into an inductive load; however, snubbing reduces
switching losses.

SAFE OPERATING AREA
The Forward Biased Safe Operating Area curves define
the maximum simultaneous drain–to–source voltage and
drain current that a transistor can handle safely when it is for-
ward biased. Curves are based upon maximum peak junc-
tion temperature and a case temperature (TC) of 25°C. Peak
repetitive pulsed power limits are determined by using the
thermal response data in conjunction with the procedures
discussed in AN569, “Transient Thermal Resistance–General
Data and Its Use.”
Switching between the off–state and the on–state may tra-
verse any load line provided neither rated peak current (IDM)
nor rated voltage (VDSS) is exceeded and the transition time
(tr,tf) do not exceed 10
µs.
In addition the total power aver-
aged over a complete switching cycle must not exceed
(TJ(MAX) – TC)/(R
θJC
).
A Power MOSFET designated E–FET can be safely used
in switching circuits with unclamped inductive loads. For reli-
able operation, the stored energy from circuit inductance dis-
sipated in the transistor while in avalanche must be less than
the rated limit and adjusted for operating conditions differing
from those specified. Although industry practice is to rate in
terms of energy, avalanche energy capability is not a con-
stant. The energy rating decreases non–linearly with an in-
crease of peak current in avalanche and peak junction
temperature.
Although many E–FETs can withstand the stress of drain–
to–source avalanche at currents up to rated pulsed current
(IDM), the energy rating is specified at rated continuous cur-
rent (ID), in accordance with industry custom. The energy rat-
ing must be derated for temperature as shown in the
accompanying graph (Figure 12). Maximum energy at cur-
rents below rated continuous ID can safely be assumed to
equal the values indicated.
