EDN's Best of Power: Switching Semiconductors

By Staff -- EDN, 5/15/2008

These switching semiconductors, which are mostly MOSFETs, boast two major sets of features: High switching speeds and low forward resistances. It used to be enough for a switching FET to switch large amounts of power at a fairly high speed; now, manufacturers offer higher performance FETs as a simple way to increase power-supply efficiency by using more efficient switching devices.
