I. INTRODUCTION
A power MOSFET is a specific type of field-effect transistor
(MOSFET) metal–oxide–semiconductor designed to handle
substantial levels of power. Compared to other power
semiconductor devices, such as a bipolar insulated-gate
transistor (IGBT) or thyristor, its main advantages are high
switching speeds and good low voltage efficiency. It shares
an isolated gate with the IGBT which makes driving easy.
They may be subject to low gain, sometimes to the extent
that the voltage of the gate must be higher than that of the
voltage under control.
