Hi lucifre,
I've read a couple of articles and they indicated that the purpose of the schottky diode placed across the source and drain is to prevent the internal body diode from conducting.

Hi VVV,
Thanks for the article. I just read the article you gave me. I somehow understood the article. What we were looking for was the gate current required to charge the parasitic capacitances of the MOSFET, however, what's next? We already know the gate current and gate voltage required to...
Hi,
Can anyone help me how to design gate drive circuits (step by step)? Or does anyone know any article/s that gives a step by step approach on how to design gate drive circuits? I would really appreciate it if anyone could upload a link or could direct me to articles regarding designing gate...

Hi,
I'm currently using Norman Nise's book Control Systems Engineering. I think it's a good book.

Re: PIC or AVR
I started using PIC microcontrollers as it was taught to us during my college years. It's much easier to learn using PIC rather than Atmel but then again I've seen some of my professors use Atmel which I believe has more capabilities as compared to the PIC microcontrollers, thus...
What is the significance of the body diode in the switching model of the MOSFET? Why is there a body diode in it? Is its presence in the switching model related to its construction? These questions were raised to us by our professor. I would really appreciate it if anyone would explain the...
Hi Sal!
I'm going to upload a schematic diagram of a bootstrap circuit that I got from an article from Unitrode, I guess. I'll include the article as well.

What does a bootstrap circuit do in driving the gate of a high-side MOSFET? Can anyone help me understand what it really does? Thanks in advance!

hi,
i have an assignment regarding the different gate driver circuit configurations namely: 1) totem pole gate drivers, 2) transformer gate drivers, and 3) IC gate drivers, however, i don't have any resources to get any information about these 3 configurations. the application of these...
