Package downsizing in DC/DC converters: thermal considerations
Nexperia
Designing for optimal efficiency in MOSFET devices is crucial for longevity, therefore, at Nexperia, we recommend the highest possible figure. Using the example of DC/DC converters, efficiency involves both conduction and switching losses due to their high switching frequencies. Meaning that higher RDSon MOSFETs or smaller packages can be used to achieve high efficiencies, but there a few considerations that must be taken when making this choice.
Join Aanas as he explores these considerations, uncovering insights into balancing conduction and switching losses, selecting the right components, and navigating design constraints for optimal performance.
