Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A circuit uses a MOSFET with R_DS(on) of 20 mΩ. If the average drain current is 25 A, how much energy is lost in conduction losses over an hour?

💡 Hint: Energy = Power × Time.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss how increasing temperature affects R_DS(on) and the implications for conduction losses.

💡 Hint: Think about how resistance changes with temperature.
