Properly designing the gate drive circuit for high-voltage MOSFETs is essential to ensure proper performance from the MOSFET one desires. Far too often, engineers find themselves having difficulty in ...

STMicroelectronics has expanded its STGAP family of isolated gate drivers with the introduction of the STGAP2SiCS, designed to safely control silicon-carbide (SiC) MOSFETs. The gate driver operates ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Traction inverters based on silicon insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) have been the go-to technology for electric vehicles (EVs). However, to ...

KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has released “TCK421G” for 20V power lines as the first product in its new “TCK42xG Series” of MOSFET ...

Driving a MOSFET isn’t just about turning it on and off — it’s about doing so efficiently, safely, and with minimal losses. From understanding gate charge and parasitics to choosing the right driver ...

KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has added five products to its lineup of MOSFET gate driver ICs in the TCK42xG Series for mobile devices ...

How many terminals does a MOSFET have? Trick question since most have three leads, even though there are really four connections to the underlying device. It isn’t a conspiracy, though and [Aaron ...

If you are going to use a silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) in your next development, you will ask yourself: how do I develop the best gate driver for it ...

Linear Technology’s LTC4440A-5 high-side, high-frequency N-channel MOSFET gate driver operates with an input voltage of up to 80 V, and continues to function with transients up to 100 V. Linear ...
