Gate Current Calculation and Practical Mosfet Selection
Vnoo3 is the drive voltage, and Ig is the gate current. What I am wondering is:
1) How to calculate the peak Ig on the rising edge of the pulsed gate voltage? For instance, using the spice image ...

Effect of drain inductance on MOSFET turn off
I have made a simple circuit in LTSpice to test MOSFET turn-off time.
Inductance is changed from 1.5nH to 1.5mH in a few steps. The next picture shows gate-to-source voltage and drain-to-source ...

Transient time in buck converter
To my understanding the reactive components in a converter should not store energy over a switching period, otherwise they will blow up. An in inductor for example abides by volt-second balance, which ...
