Hi,
I am trying to derive a transfer function for a system comprising of a power mosfet connected to a known load. Specifically, what I am looking for is H(s) = V_o(s) / V_gs(s) where H(s) is the overall transfer function (laplace transform of the system containing a power mosfet driving a load), V_o(s) is the laplace transform for the voltage across the load and V_gs(s) is the laplace transform of the gate voltage (or the control voltage) of the power mosfet.
We can assume that the load presents an impedance of Z_l(s) to the power mosfet whose source is connected to a constant source V_dd, drain is connected to the load impedance of Z_l(s) and gate is connected to the input of the system V_gs(s).
How do I go about deriving such H(s)?
I tried using the square law model of the mosfet in the saturation region but then it is non-linear so laplace transformations cannot be used. Can somebody explain step by step how to derive this?
Thanks,
