MOSFET Loss simulation

Hi Team,

we are simulating one DC-DC Power converter and trying to estimate MOSFET Power loss using pspice. For that what are the best way to simulate and estimate switching and conduction losse of MOSFET?

Also, Need some information about MOSFET Thermal Model simulation. How to utilise themal model in pspice ?

Please share any application/Guide line note MOSFTE Losse estimation and Therma model would be highly appriciated.

I am trying with one model but PSPICE is giving below mention error.

Regards,

Hardik

Hi.... the SPICE model isn't designed for this purpose, and a lot of the parameters are not calibrated to match the real values for Ploss.

Assuming your manual calculations and the online calculator were in decent agreement, I would trust those losses more. And since they are higher, it will force you to be more conservative in your design.

Hi...I'm attempting to show exchanging misfortunes of an Infineon Power MOSFET (IAUS300N10S5N014) in Simetrix/Simplis Elements (V8.4) by reenacting Double Pulse Test. To reenact the exchanging misfortunes precisely, simplis recommneds Level 2 or 3 flavor models. For the chose MOSFET, Infineon has advertised

Levels 0,1 and 3 zest models just (no level 2 model). Simplis can separate just L0,1,2 flavor models and for level 3 we need to physically make a model (There's no adequate information to make this). So I might want to demonstrate it as a level 2 simplis model.

Do you have any proposal/ideas to make a level 2 flavor model (3 pin) with the avaialbel zest models or some other method of doing this recreation in Simplis?

I had a lot of harvest after seeing this post of yours! Before I used to play games nytimes crossword, this is a fun game for entertainment, but now I will follow you, read your articles and have more knowledge.
