The direct drive of power-supply IC is the most common and the simplest driving method. With this method, we should pay attention to several parameters and the influence of them.

In modern automotive applications, an average of about 30 relays are used in a car. Driving a relay is simple, and the internal resistance of the connection can be very low. However, compared with relays, MOSFETs have obvious advantages in noise, service life, miniaturization and reliability. Therefore more and more manufacturers consider using MOSFETs to replace relays. Developed for a one-semester course at the junior, senior, or graduate level, MOSFET Theory and Design presents a clear, in-depth treatment of physical analysis and design principles for the MOSFET. By focusing solely on the MOSFET, this slim volume recognizes the dominance of this device in today's microelectronics technology while also provi ding students with an efficient text free of extra subject matter. In addition to the above drive circuits, there are many other forms of drive circuits. For a variety of drive circuits, there is no best drive circuit so called, but the most suitable drive circuit chosen regarding to specific applications. When designing the power supply, the above several angles are considered to design drive circuits for the MOS transistor. If the finished power supply is used, whether a power supply module, an ordinary switching power supply or a power adapter are kind of work which is generally completed by power supply design manufacturers. If you are worried about the interference coupling on the nearby power line, which will cause instantaneous high-voltage breakdown of the MOS tube, you can connect a TVS transient suppression diode of about 18V in parallel between GS. TVS can be considered as a voltage regulator tube with fast response speed. The power it can withstand instantaneously is as high as several hundred to kilowatts, which can be used to absorb instantaneous interference pulses.Gamers can choose to drive and race through deserts and large urban areas. Regular updates are constantly added so all maps are exciting and interesting to use. It is advisable you test them all and see which map mode is the best for you. Some maps are more challenging than the others, but all maps require some good driving skills and will definitely keep your attention as you play. MOSFET is a type of FET, which can be made into enhancement mode or depletion mode, P-channel or N-channel, a total of 4 types, but only the enhancement-mode N-channel MOS tube and the enhancement-mode P-channel are actually used. MOS tube, so NMOS is usually mentioned, or PMOS refers to these two. For these two enhanced MOS tubes, NMOS is more commonly used. The reason is that the on-resistance is small and it is easy to manufacture. Therefore, in the application of switching power supply and motor drive, NMOS is generally used. In the following introduction, NMOS is mainly used.

When using a MOSFET to design a switching power supply, most people will consider the parameters of on-resistance, maximum voltage and maximum current of the MOSFET. But that's it. We always only taking these factors into consideration. Such a circuit designed in this way is far from being a good circuit. We should take a closer look at its own parasitic parameters. For a certain MOSFET, its drive circuit, the peak output drive current, the rising rate and etc. will all affect the switching performance of MOSFET. When the power-supply IC and MOS transistor are selected, it is especially important to select an appropriate driver circuit to connect the IC to the transistor. Do switching power supply, commonly used power MOSFET. In general, MOS tube manufacturers use the RDS(ON) parameter to define the on-resistance; for ORing FET applications, RDS(ON) is also the most important device characteristic. The data sheet defines RDS(ON) to be related to the gate (or drive) voltage, VGS, and the current through the switch, but for adequate gate drive, RDS(ON) is a relatively static parameter. The totem pole circuit introduced in the second section can also speed up the turn-off. When the drive capacity of power-supply IC is sufficient, the circuit improvement in fig.2 can accelerate the switching-off time of MOS transistor and then get a circuit shown in figure 4. It is quite common to use a triode to discharge the capacitor between gate and source terminals. If the emitter of Q 1 has no resistance, the capacitor between the gate and source will be shorted when the PNP transistor is turned on, and the discharge of it can be realized in the shortest time, minimizing the crossover losses at turn-off. Compared with the topology of Figure 3, the topology of Figure 4 also has the advantage that the current of capacitor between the gate and source is not discharged through the power-supply IC, which improves reliability.This book describes high frequency power MOSFET gate driver technologies, including gate drivers for GaN HEMTs, which have great potential in the next generation of switching power converters. Gate drivers serve as a critical role between control and power devices. Topics covered in the book include the state-of-the-art of power MOSFET drive techniques, the switching loss model, current source gate drivers (CSDs), resonant gate drivers, adaptive gate drivers and GaN HEMT gate drivers. We also offer automotive qualified gate driver ICs. The trend towards greater efficiency in automotive applications also concerns electric motors. Applications such as power steering, HVAC compressors and engine cooling fans will be controlled by electronic motors in the future. The configurable, H-bridge and three-phase automotive gate driver IC's can be combined with automotive MOSFETs to provide the power and efficiency these systems demand.

There are a number of pumps used in automotive applications, such as fuel, water and air pumps. Both brushed and brushless DC motors can be suitable for this application. For the former a simple half-bridge structure can be used ( Fig. 14). In some small current load applications, the recirculating FET can be replaced by a Schottky diode. For brushless motor a more comple structure of 3-phase bridge is required Fig. 13. In this case the difference in complexity and number of components can be quite stunning. There is parasitic capacitance between the three pins of the MOS tube, which is not what we need, but is caused by the limitation of the manufacturing process. The existence of parasitic capacitance makes it more troublesome to design or select the driving circuit, but there is no way to avoid it, which will be described in detail later. Considering the magnetic field as constant, the torque produced by the DC motor will thus be proportional to the armature current and the motor torque constant K T. This may be seen in Eq. 2 below: For this particular motor the rotor was measured to weigh 220 g and to have a radius of approximately 17 mm, thus yielding an approximately 3.15x10 -5 kg·m 2 moment of inertia. Additionally the plastic disc was found to have a moment of inertia of approximately 3.5x10 -6 kg·m 2. By adding the two, the total inertia was found to be 3.5x10 -5 kg·m 2.It can be seen on the schematic diagram of the MOS tube that there is a parasitic diode between the drain and the source. This is called the body diode, and it is very important when driving an inductive load (such as a motor). By the way, the body diode only exists in a single MOS transistor, and usually does not exist inside the integrated circuit chip. When MOS is turned on and off, it must not be completed in an instant. The voltage at both ends of the MOS has a falling process, and the current flowing through it has a rising process. During this period, the loss of the MOS tube is the product of the voltage and the current, which is called switching loss. Usually switching losses are much larger than conduction losses, and the faster the switching frequency, the greater the losses. If the parasitic capacitance of the selected MOS transistor is large and the driving capacity of the power-supply IC is insufficient, the totem pole circuit is often used to enhance the drive capability of the power supply IC, which is shown in the dotted box of figure 2.

Compared with bipolar transistors, it is generally believed that no current is required to turn on the MOS tube, as long as the GS voltage is higher than a certain value, it is enough. This is easy to do, but we also need speed. The game itself is not very big, taking around three hundred megabytes of space on your computer. It comes with a set of several types of cars and maps. When it comes to maps mods, there are plenty to choose from and pretty much all kinds of maps are covered – from driving on dirt and off road to racing on speedy highways. BeamNG Drive is a unique crash simulator where each gamer can enjoy the real cars deformation after bumps with trees, walls or another road users. This effect is achieved because of implementation the disruption patterns inside gameplay, fixed by crash test engineers.

Whether it is NMOS or PMOS, there is an on-resistance after it is turned on, so that the current will consume energy on this resistance, and this part of the energy consumed is called conduction loss. Selecting a MOS tube with a small on-resistance will reduce the conduction loss. The on-resistance of the current low-power MOS tube is generally around tens of milliohms, and there are also several milliohms. The characteristics of PMOS, Vgs will be turned on if it is less than a certain value, which is suitable for the situation when the source is connected to VCC (high-end drive). However, although PMOS can be easily used as a high-end drive, NMOS is usually used in high-end drives due to its large on-resistance, high price, and few replacement types. During the on-time of the switch, the driver circuit can ensure that the voltage between the gate and source terminals of the MOSFET remains stable and reliably turned on.
