  • Abstract
    In this paper we discusses in details the effect of the gate equivalent series resistance, ESR, of switching power MOSFETs on different aspects of loss mechanisms when used in DC-DC converters. The loss mechanisms addressed are current rise and fall times, die current distribution and localized shoot through
