Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS23880
Hi,
I would like to have some help about the CSD19538Q3A.
My application is the folowing :
When transistor is ON, it closes a circuit and a current of 1.25 A is flowing through the transistor. The gate is controlled from 10 V to 12.5 V.
When transistor is OFF, it opens the circuit and there is no current flowing.
To check if the transistor as an enough SOA, I need to know the exact value of Vds. How to know it ?
I though to use Rds (on) to calculate Vds (because used in ohmic region) : Vds = Rds (on) = Ids
Rds (on) is given figure 7 page 5 but for a Ids = 5A.
Thank you for your help
Pierre
