Where Can I Learn About Large Signal Operations of MOSFETs?

AI Thread Summary
For a detailed understanding of large signal operations of MOSFETs, resources focusing on switchmode power supply applications are recommended. The concept of Safe Operating Area (SOA) is crucial for power MOSFET usage. A suggested resource includes a link to an article from Electronic Products that discusses these topics. Exploring SOA will enhance comprehension of MOSFET performance in large signal applications. This foundational knowledge is essential for effective implementation in electronic designs.

Hi guys!

can anybody suggest me any link from where i can get a detailed understanding of large signal operations of MOSFETs?

Thanks in advance
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
I googled mosfet soa and got a lot of hits. I assume by "large signal" you mean switchmode power supply uses of MOSFETs. SOA (safe operating area) is one of the key concepts for the use of power MOSFETs. Here's one of the hits from google:

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
