Power MOSFETs are most often used in switched-mode applications where they function as on-off switches. But in applications like electronic loads, linear regulators or Class A amplifiers, power ...

Let’s examine the elements contributing to the on-state resistance (R DSON) of a planar Si N-MOSFET, shown in Figure 1, to comprehend the benefits and notion of an SJ MOSFET. Figure 1: Planar N-MOSFET ...
