Mid Term Examination
a) What is the type of power MOSFETs that is used commonly and why? Sketch its physical
structure and illustrate its transfer characteristic. {5 Marks}
b) Design a boost converter that will have an output of 5 V from a 3V source. Design for
continuous inductor current and an output ripple voltage of less than 1 %. The load is a
resistance of 10 Ω. The switching frequency is selected at 50 kHz to be above the audio range.
Assume ideal components for this design. {5 Marks}
