Low-Side Power Switch QL

Select a logic level N-channel MOSFET that 5V VCC is sufficient to completely enhance the MOSFET. Also, note the minimum HOx-SWx voltage is 3.75V during bypass operation. Make sure the MOSFET is turned on at this voltage.

Selection of the power MOSFET devices by breaking down the losses is one way to compare the relative efficiencies of different devices. Losses in the low-side MOSFET device can be separated into conduction loss and switching loss.

Low-side conduction loss is approximately calculated as follows:

Equation 38. PCOND_LS=D×Iin2×RDS(on)×1.3

Where, the factor of 1.3 accounts for the increase in the MOSFET on-resistance due to heating. Alternatively, the factor of 1.3 can be eliminated and the high temperature on-resistance of the MOSFET can be estimated using the RDS(ON) vs temperature curves in the MOSFET datas heet.

Switching loss occurs during the brief transition period as the low-side MOSFET turns on and off. During the transition period both current and voltage are present in the channel of the MOSFET device. The low-side switching loss is approximately calculated as follows:

Equation 39. PSW_LS=0.5×Vout×Iin×tR+tF×fsw

tR and tF are the rise and fall times of the low-side MOSFET. The rise and fall times are usually mentioned in the MOSFET data sheet or can be empirically observed with an oscilloscope.

Reverse recovery of the high-side MOSFET increases the fall time and turn on current of the low-side MOSFET resulting in higher turn on loss.

An additional Schottky diode can be placed in parallel with the low-side MOSFET, with short connections to the source and drain in order to minimize negative voltage spikes at the SW node.
