28th May 2017 Hi Stefan, remarkable work on VLF, congratulations!! I see these with all FET's but I acquired very cheaply some Wolfspeed FETs with a lot of overhead. These spikes sometimes kill lesser ones. If you follow these links you can see the normal gate and drain waveforms, and the drain waveform without a Varistor as an OPERA TX period ends, i took the latter from a series of screenshots showing the highest level the close TX spike reaches http://www.gatesgarth.com/wolfspeed-scope-capture-50v.jpg http://www.gatesgarth.com/wolfspeed-overshoot-50v.jpg http://www.gatesgarth.com/wolfspeed.pdf Best regards, Chris 2E0ILY mailto:[email protected] My part time LF grabber is at http://www.chriswilson.tv/grabber.html > Hi Chris, > Which type of FETs are you using? > The IRFP460A for example has a built in Z-diode which seems to handle > the spikes. Anyway i put a 150 Ohm / 220 pF (for LF) series RC paralell > to the Drain-Source... > 73, Stefan -- Best regards, Chris mailto:[email protected] |
