- Solution : Implement gate driver IC with 10-12V drive capability
- Pitfall : Slow switching due to inadequate gate current
- Solution : Use gate driver with peak current capability >2A
Thermal Management:
- Pitfall : Inadequate heatsinking causing thermal runaway
- Solution : Calculate thermal requirements using θJA and provide sufficient copper area
- Pitfall : Poor thermal interface material application
- Solution : Use thermal pads with thermal conductivity >3W/mK
PCB Layout Problems:
- Pitfall : Long gate traces causing oscillation
- Solution : Keep gate drive loop compact with minimal trace length
