Currently, I'm designing Zeta Converter for my projects and I made this design. enter image description here

When there is no supply applied to the zeta converter, the PWM signal seems good. enter image description here

But it ends up getting a bad turn-off signal like this picture when the supply applied enter image description here

edited: so each channel are connected to PWM1/PWM2 & SOURCE to see how PWM signals are. PWM1/PWM2 are connected to the GATE of MOSFETS and SOURCE are connected to the SOURCE of MOSFETS

connector power to ic

    \$\begingroup\$ Please show layout, and preferably a photo of where the probes are connected and oriented. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ A schematic of the gate driver circuit would be very interesting. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ For the gate driver circuit, you can see it in the schematic I posted. At the top right of the picture \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ Apparently the ground of scope (or scope's GND lead) is disturbed. Is there any physical connection between the scope's ground and IN– of the circuit? Try isolating the GND of the scope (from it's power cord) and re-take the measurements. \$\endgroup\$

If the circuit is made on a solderless breadboard then the capacitance and inductance of the rows of contacts and the wires all over the place make oscillation like you show.
