What is the mode of MOSFET or BJT in buck converter?

I want to implement buck converter with conventional design (not synchronous etc) like below. And I want to implement the converter for two cases. One is to use BJT as switching device and another is ...

Why don't inverters use BJTs to easily produce a pure sine wave?

This has been in my mind for a while now, I'm curious. Why not use a BJT H-bridge on the high voltage side, to convert the high voltage DC to AC. I saw a simple circuit that converts square waves to ...

Why is it bad to drive a MOSFET asymmetrically using BJTs?

And by that title, I Mean that the drive current to the gate of the MOSFET when the BJT is on differs from the drive current for when it is off. I know that it would cause a difference between Toff ...

How to switch voltage using transistor

I have a 5V voltage source with 2.5A current as input. I want to have this source in the output. I use a microcontroller. I can't use a relay because it takes up a lot of space. I first used this ...

Transistor PWM Generator (No ICs) for practical application

I want to produce a good quality PWM signal with transistors(BJTs, FETS, etc..). I do not want to use an IC at all(learning to use transistors properly). I'm currently using a BJT Astable Mutivibrator ...

MOSFET is not turning off when the gate terminal is grounded

This figure shows a small portion of my circuit: The maximum Vgs of the MOSFET is 20V. The MOSFET is initially turned on and now I want to turn it off. For that I am grounding the terminal A to ...
