Switch
Eon va (t ) ia (t ) dt a(t)

to OFF ON
Where:
– Eon is the energy loss in the switch ia(t)
during the transition.
– va (t ) is the instantaneous voltage
across the switch. t0 t1
– i a (t )
is the instantaneous current
through the switch.
– t1 is when the transition is complete.
– t0 is when the transition begins.
Oscilloscope
•Enough bandwidth and rise time to
handle switching signal frequency
components
•Fast sample rate to capture transitions
•Deep record length for long acquisitions
Signal Source
•Simulate gate drive signal
•Adjustable duty cycle, edge Probes
transition times, and frequency •AC/DC current probes
•Many need 12V to 15V output •Differential probes to make
floating measurements
Actual Measured
Record Length
– Determines how much “time” is
captured for given sample rate
– An example:
– A half-cycle of 60 Hz is over 8 ms
– With sample rate of 1 GS/s, need 8
Mpoint record length

Core Loss
– Includes hysteresis loss and eddy current loss
Copper Loss
– Due to resistance of the copper winding wire
