How can I take parameters from power NMOS and power PMOS transistors and translate these into LTspice simulations?

I am trying to simulate NMOS and PMOS power transistors in LTspice, but I keep getting error messages about the NMOS being duplicate. Some of the earlier LTspice file is here. I am trying to have a ...

Inverting MOSFET drive circuit, is my scheme correct? [duplicate]

I am an automotive engineer student, building an inverting MOSFET driver (where a MOSFET drives and controls another MOSFET, Vin low -> Main MOSFET closed, Vin high -> Main MOSFET open). My ...

NMOS high side driver: If a resistor is added on the "Vs"/"Vss" input connected to bootstrap capacitor, should external Rgate be reduced?

Following up from a previous question, in the MIC4606 datasheet, it is suggested to protect the "xHS" (called Vs or Vss on most parts I found) pins with a Schottky diode and a resistor, as ...

How can I properly terminate an unused gate driver channel?

I have a circuit where I need only one MOSFET to be controlled but I have a dual channel gate driver capable of driving both high and low side MOSFET. I only need the low side channel for the ...

Low-side NMOS switch circuit

I built this circuit trying to learn how to drive a single HY3912W MOSFET. In the simulator, it acts as I expect. I built it. When I applied 6V to VAG and 5V for 1-second pulse to PWM every time the ...

High side n-MOS driver without charge pump

I couldn't find details of this circuit configuration in an internet search. Most online results are about P-MOSFET in high side path or N-channel MOSFET with charge-pump/IC based driver. simulate ...

What are the limitations of AC coupling a MOSFET gate?

I came up with this AC coupled half bridge for high positive and negative voltage output with logic level control that I cannot find in any resources about (probably due to wrong search terms): It ...

Least amount of parts to switch a resistive load [closed]

Excuse me for not being able to provide a schematic right now as I’m on mobile but my question is fairly straightforward. I’m trying to drive a bunch of resistive loads fairly quickly in a constrained ...

MOSFET bootstrap switching circuit switching OFF problem

Currently I am designing a power switching circuit. The goal is to switch on a N channel MOSFET with a low side load. The circuit should work with input Voltages up to around 60 Volts. The switch is ...

Improving dV/dt turn-on immunity of a mosfet without increasing turn-off time

I'm designing a solid state battery disconnect switch and I want to improve the mosfets' turn-on immunity (high dV/dt on Vds) without impacting the turn-off time. I don't really care about the turn-on ...
