Low-side FET selection

Doc ID 023820 Rev 1

21/47

In the following table the main electrical parameters of the two tested LS FETs are reported.

The high-side FET used is called “HS”.

As shown in the previous table, the “LS1” has higher RDS(on), but slightly lower total gate

charge. In Figure 21 the relevant efficiency curves are depicted; at low output currents, the

LS1, due to its slightly lower Qg and then switching/gate drive losses, has higher efficiency.

But, at medium and heavy load conditions, the RDS(on) improvement makes “LS2” the best

in terms of efficiency.

CGD (Miller capacitance)

The Miller capacitance (Cgd) plays a crucial role in the LS switching behavior improvement.

As already known, before the HS turns on, the load current flows through the LS body-drain

diode (deadtime) (Figure 22, green trace, I2).
