Abstract
A forward converter for switched mode power supply (SMPS) applications has been designed and realized, with a monolithic cascode device as active switch, looking for the performance enhancement. The operation of this device in a SMPS application is shown in detail, and results regarding electrical and thermal characteristics in comparison to the power MOSFET device solution are discussed. The experimental tests that have been carried out are targeted to show the suitability of this device when a 1000-1500 V operation is required and a single switch topology is the most appropriate. Some remarks about the driving circuit adopted for the cascode are also reported.
