What is causing this drain current ringing
This is 4 kW Buck boost, Vin Min = 200 V. L = 600uH, switch used is C3M0065100K. With just 2.4 kW power, I notice the high Di/Dt on bottom switch drain current. Top and bottom switches have RCD ...

How to improve buck converter's efficiency
I am designing a buck converter for 600 - 10V converting (60 times lower than input).
My first question - is this even possible? I've seen a 650 - 40V converter on mouser, but that is the best that I ...

Voltage drop over MOSFET controlled by microcontroller
I made the circuit below to power a microcontroller and a load from one power source.
But looking at the voltage drop between drain and source of the IRLZ44N MOSFET, instead of 12 V I got only 3.1 V ...
