Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A design team needs to evaluate two different MOSFETs for a PWM application. MOSFET A has a switching loss of 1.5W and conduction loss of 5W at a given frequency. MOSFET B has a switching loss of 2W but a lower conduction loss of 2.5W. Which one should they choose for efficiency and why?
💡 Hint: Compare overall power dissipation to conclude efficiency.
