The forward-biased safe operating area (FBSOA) in a MOSFET defines the permissible and safety operation locus in terms of drain current (ID) and drain-to-source voltage (VDS). This area is limited by maximum allowable voltage, current and power dissipation.

Abstract

The forward-biased safe operating area (FBSOA) in a MOSFET defines the permissible and safety operation locus in terms of drain current (ID) and drain-to-source voltage (VDS). This area is limited by maximum allowable voltage, current and power dissipation. In modern low voltage power MOSFETs, experimental data have shown an anomalous failure mode which limits the theoretical FBSOA at low drain current and its ability to operate in linear mode
