PARALLELING POWER MOSFETs
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Whenever devices are operated in parallel, due consideration should be given to the sharing between devices to ensure that the individual units are operated within their limits. Items that must be considered to successfully parallel MOSFETs are: gate circuitry, layout considerations, current unbalance, and temperature unbalance. This application note covers these topics and provides guidelines on paralleling.

Power MOSFET Basics
Power MOSFETs (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) are the most commonly used power devices due to their low gate drive power, fast switching speed and superior paralleling capability. Most power MOSFETs feature a vertical structure with Source and Drain on opposite sides of the wafer in order to support higher current and voltage. Figure 1a and 1b show the basic device structure...
