The following are problems that have to be overcome for
successful operation of MOSFETs in series. If one device
turns off before another it may be asked to block a voltage
greater than its breakdown voltage. This will cause a
reduction in the lifetime of the MOSFET. Also there is a
requirement for twice as many isolated gate drive circuits
in many circuits.
Hi Muhammad alihiz to all
i want to switch 800v from microcontroller. for that purpose i want ot use p-channel MOSFET.
i am searching for mosfet of 800v - 1000v.
can anyone tell me a mosfet which can switch 800v to 1000v or tell me can i use two transistor in series to distribute the voltage in them???
i shall be greatful
what ? i think you want control a positive voltage ( +800 volts ) so who told that you can't use N mosfet ? is your load between switch ad ground ?n-mosfet can only be connect in ground reference and i want to switch positive side . so i have to use p-mosfet
Certainly ! you can easily use two transistor , to drive your IGBT , floating ( create +15 volts across the GE to be sure about it's operation as a perfect switch )can you little explain float driver???
Of course it can handle your aim but with higher price and higher dissipation in compare with a contactor ! because your current isn't pulsing ! ( 800 V 100 A is 80kVA ) so , i don't think that your interested to waste the power and waste you're money .i think IGBT can do it. can you suggest me any IGBT which i can get easily in the market
space limitation ? i think if you use an IGBT with a large heat sink it will be larger than a simple contactor .i have space issues. its just a small device which i want to make. the whole circuit is ready except this department
Yes you can , but you need a pretty precise driver ! because if both of them don't be on at the same time , both will born ! you'll need some feedback loops to be sure about on time and off time .can i connect two transistor in series to distribute voltage???
i mean that my voltage is 800V. can i use two 500v transistors in series to distribute voltage between them? if yes kindly refer some circuit?
Circuit of which section ? floating driver ? or series transistor matching section ?refer circuit please
