Abstract :
The power MOSFET model performance required for accurate waveform simulation is evaluated for most power converter circuits. Three models are thoroughly evaluated through C-V plots, gate charge plots and power converter data. A procedure is given for evaluating any proprietary model using data book information with three simple simulations
