Hi expert,

I'm using your power loss calculation tool on http://www.ti.com/tool/fetpwrcalc.

But I cannot change low side MOSFET setting even I change low side FET to CSD17552.

If I need to calculate two MOSFET parallel condition, how can I verify this tool to meet the parallel requirement?

Please kindly help me on this case, thank you so much!

Thanks,

Ann,
Unfortunately it is not possible to parallel FETs in the tool, this is a future enhancement we are looking to implement. As a potential solution, you could divide the current by the number of FETs you want to parallel , so if you want 40A through 2 FETs, then use the tool with 20A through a single FET to get an estimated power loss per FET.

Hi Chris,

Thanks in advance for your help. I will try to get a closer result for my customer. Hope the future enhancement could be better for us and come out faster.
