Trench-based silicon carbide power MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors) represent a dramatic improvement in the Figure of Merit (FOM) values of power conversion switching ...

The power transistor must be chosen to provide fast response while also withstanding high power dissipation. Several electrical and thermal characteristics must be considered: 1. An array of N current ...

Square-root-calculating circuits find wide use in instrumentation and measurement systems for such tasks as calculating the rms (root-mean-square) value of an arbitrary waveform, for example. Hence, ...

Mechanical switches can be noisy, generating multiple transient pulses that may cause faulty operation of fast digital circuits. In this design, a pair of MOSFETs are used in a monostable mode to ...

Sunnyvale, Calif. — Right on the heels of its zero-threshold MOSFETs, Advanced Linear Devices (ALD) is bringing out a line of Nanopower MOSFETs, devices that can build circuits that operate on as ...

Transistors are three-terminal semiconductor devices. One terminal controls electrical resistance or current flow between the other two terminals, giving transistors a valvelike operation. Transistors ...
