Selection of MOSFET, Q1

For selecting the MOSFET Q1, important electrical parameters are the maximum continuous drain current ID, the maximum drain-to-source voltage VDS(MAX), the maximum drain-to-source voltage VGS(MAX), and the drain-to-source ON resistance RDSON.

The maximum continuous drain current, ID, rating must exceed the maximum continuous load current.

The maximum drain-to-source voltage, VDS(MAX), must be high enough to withstand the highest voltage seen in the application. Considering 60V as the maximum application voltage, MOSFETs with VDS voltage rating of 80V is suitable for this application.

The maximum VGS TPS4811Q1 can drive is 13V, so a MOSFET with 15V minimum VGS rating must be selected.

To reduce the MOSFET conduction losses, lowest possible RDS(ON) is preferred.

Based on the design requirements, IPB160N08S4-03ATMA1 is selected and its ratings are:

  • 80V VDS(MAX) and ±20V VGS(MAX)
  • RDS(ON) is 2.6mΩ typical at 10V VGS
  • MOSFET Qg(total) is 86nC
