Impact of the external gate resistance on the power CoolMOS transistor transient switching dynamics

2025Open accessIbn Tofail University

Abstract

Abstract This study covers three complementary aspects; it focuses first on analyzing the turn-on and turn-off processes of the power CoolMOS transistor and investigating its switching times. Furthermore, it expands the scope of our previous works by validating the dynamic behaviour of the proposed model of the power CoolMOS transistor and it assesses the influence of the external gate resistance on the device’s switching performance. Simulation results for the switching characteristics were verified through experimental measurements. An experimental test was carried out using a resistive load circuit with different external gate resistance values to analyze its impact on the device’s switching behavior. The findings confirm the accuracy of the conclusions drawn from the theoretical and simulation analyses presented in this paper.
