Automotive MOSFET Design-In: AEC-Q101, Load Dump, SOA, and Mission Profiles
Key Takeaways AEC-Q101 is the entry ticket, not the whole story: the mission profile (temperature cycles, load dump, SOA) decides whether the MOSFET survives a decade in a vehicle. Load-dump and transient protection need coordinated choices — see TVS for load dump and automotive rectifier selection. Gate drive quality matters as much as the device: … Read more
