Abstract:
This paper presents an efficient approach to model the behavior of a Power MOSFET for EMC simulation purposes. The SPICE-compatible circuit description of the macromodel ensures the integration in different simulation environments. The suggested macromodeling technique is demonstrated for a typical application in power electronics. Validation is carried out by comparison with reference simulations using a standard SPICE library MOSFET model.
