How do Power MOSFETs (HEXFETs) work? - Electrical Engineering …
Jan 24, 2023 · HEXFET is just Infineon's brand name for their power MOSFET construction, so the drive characteristics are the same as for any other enhancement mode device: for N …
Diode in MOSFET symbol - Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange
Feb 5, 2018 · HEXFET is just the trade mark name of a power MOSFET by International Rectifier, so there is no difference between a power MOSFET and an HEXFET in the sense that an …
How should I understand the intrinsic body diode inside a MOSFET?
Aug 5, 2018 · The intrinsic body diode is the p-n junction between the body and the drain. In a discrete (standalone) MOSFET, the source and body are usually tied together for convenience …
protection - Correct use of Flyback or Snubber diode across Motor …
From seeing a few schematics where the flyback or snubber diode has been placed across the transistor C-E terminals (Right Configuration), instead of what I typically seen as the the …
How can I tell if a MOSFET is enhancement-mode or depletion …
Sep 5, 2018 · In my scramble to find some information on the MOSFET I will be using as a switch (HEXFET actually), I learned that MOSFETs in general come in two modes, enhancement …
Do I need a Gate driver on a Power Mosfet if its working without it ...
The switch that turns it on and off reportedly wears out from current draw and needs frequent replacement (suggested every three years). Instead of that I thought a Mosfet would allow the …
current - Why so many pins for the MOSFET's drain? - Electrical ...
May 24, 2012 · This is particularly common with HEXFET and PowerTrench power MOSFETs as the drain is connected to the bulk of the substrate, and the source is a metallic layer on top. …
HEXFET PWM motor driver does not work - Electrical Engineering …
Oct 26, 2014 · I'm trying to drive a motor for an academic project, using the circuit in the image. The STM32F4 Discovery board that I'm using in this phase of the project produces a 30Khz …
What are VDDA and VSSA? - Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange
Aug 27, 2020 · What do VDDA and VSSA mean? Are they for a separate analog power supply? What is an analog power supply in this context? How does it differ to a digital power supply? …
Gate Capacitance and Miller Capacitance on the MOSFET
Sep 28, 2013 · How is the Gate capacitance and the Miller capacitance modeled for a MOSFET. What is the behavior for both when a Gate Voltage is applied?
