Motorola Preferred Device
N–Channel Enhancement–Mode Silicon Gate
This advanced high voltage TMOS E–FET is designed to
withstand high energy in the avalanche mode and switch efficiently.
This new high energy device also offers a drain–to–source diode
with fast recovery time. Designed for high voltage, high speed
switching applications such as power supplies, PWM motor
controls and other inductive loads, the avalanche energy capability
is specified to eliminate the guesswork in designs where inductive
loads are switched and offer additional safety margin against
unexpected voltage transients.

Figure 7. Maximum Rated Forward Biased
Safe Operating Area
FORWARD BIASED SAFE OPERATING AREA
The FBSOA curves define the maximum drain–to–source
voltage and drain current that a device can safely handle
when it is forward biased, or when it is on, or being turned on.
Because these curves include the limitations of simultaneous
high voltage and high current, up to the rating of the device,
they are especially useful to designers of linear systems. The
curves are based on a case temperature of 25°C and a maxi-
mum junction temperature of 150°C. Limitations for repetitive
pulses at various case temperatures can be determined by
using the thermal response curves. Motorola Application
Note, AN569, “Transient Thermal Resistance–General Data
and Its Use” provides detailed instructions.
SWITCHING SAFE OPERATING AREA
The switching safe operating area (SOA) of Figure 8 is the
boundary that the load line may traverse without incurring
damage to the MOSFET. The fundamental limits are the
peak current, IDM and the breakdown voltage, V(BR)DSS. The
switching SOA shown in Figure 8 is applicable for both turn–
on and turn–off of the devices for switching times less than
one microsecond.

COMMUTATING SAFE OPERATING AREA (CSOA)
The Commutating Safe Operating Area (CSOA) of
Figure 14 defines the limits of safe operation for commutated
source–drain current versus re–applied drain voltage when
the source–drain diode has undergone forward bias. The
curve shows the limitations of IFM and peak VDS for a given
rate of change of source current. It is applicable when wave-
forms similar to those of Figure 13 are present. Full or half–
bridge PWM DC motor controllers are common applications
requiring CSOA data.
Device stresses increase with increasing rate of change of
source current so dIs/dt is specified with a maximum value.
Higher values of dIs/dt require an appropriate derating of IFM,
peak VDS or both. Ultimately dIs/dt is limited primarily by de-
vice, package, and circuit impedances. Maximum device
stress occurs during trr as the diode goes from conduction to
reverse blocking.
VDS(pk) is the peak drain–to–source voltage that the device
must sustain during commutation; IFM is the maximum for-
ward source–drain diode current just prior to the onset of
commutation.
VR is specified at 80% of V(BR)DSS to ensure that the
CSOA stress is maximized as IS decays from IRM to zero.
RGS should be minimized during commutation. TJ has only
a second order effect on CSOA.
