Other circuit also need to work in linear model.For example, control many simple motor in this manner, for example fan motor.
When modern power MOSFET, especially groove MOSFET and vertical double-diffused MOS FET (VDMOS) go wrong when working in linear zone.Typically, modern device has smaller units spacing (<10 microns), and these devices are subject to the influence of thermal runaway (thermal runaways).
The reason of thermal runaway is critical current density J in gadget
cExistence: more than described critical current density, current density reduces along with the increase of temperature; And below described critical current density, current density increases along with the increase of temperature.If make FET work in critical current density J
cBelow, the less increase of temperature has just increased current density, and the increase that this causes temperature causes higher current density, i.e. thermal runaway.
Critical current density J
cValue determine by two competition effects.At first, the resistance of raceway groove increases when temperature increases.This is along with the temperature increase has reduced current density.Secondly, when temperature increased, the threshold voltage of MOSFET reduced.When the hard conducting of MOSFET, this variation in the threshold voltage is unimportant.Yet under linear model, the threshold voltage that reduces has changed effective grid voltage, thereby along with the temperature increase has increased current density.When gain increased, second kind of effect became more important relatively.The per unit area grid width that modern MOSFET has higher value, and, make second kind of effect preponderate according to current work, promptly MOSFET works in J
cBelow.
