SMBus Interfaced Battery Charger with Internal FETs  
ISL95871C  
Features  
The ISL95871C is a highly integrated Lithium-ion battery charger  
controller, programmable over the System Management Bus  
(SMBus) with internal switching FETs. High efficiency is achieved  
with a DC/DC synchronous-rectifier buck converter, equipped with  
diode emulation for enhanced light load efficiency and system bus  
boosting prevention. The ISL95871C charges one to four  
Lithium-ion series cells, and delivers up to 8A charge current.  
Integrated MOSFETs and bootstrap diode result in fewer  
components and smaller implementation area. Low offset  
current-sense amplifiers provide high accuracy with 10mΩ sense  
resistors. The ISL95871C provides 0.5% battery voltage accuracy.  
• Internal Synchronous Buck Output Stage Power FETs

ISL95871C  
AC-Adapter Detection  
Theory of Operation  
Connect the AC-adapter voltage through a resistor divider to ACIN  
to detect when AC power is available, as shown in Figure 4. ACOK  
is an open-drain output and is active low when ACIN is less than  
ACIN falling threshold, and high when ACIN is above ACIN rising  
threshold. The ACIN rising threshold is 3.2V (typ) with 57mV  
hysteresis.  
Introduction  
The ISL95871C includes all of the functions necessary to charge  
1- to 4-cell Li-ion and Li-polymer batteries. A high efficiency  
synchronous buck converter is used to control the charging  
voltage up to 19.2V and charging current up to 8A. The  
ISL95871C also has input current limiting up to 11A. The Input  
current limit, charge current limit and charge voltage limit are set  
by internal registers written with SMBus. The ISL95871C “Typical  
Application Circuit” is shown in Figure 4.  
Current Measurement  
Use ICM to monitor the adapter current being sensed across CSIP  
and CSIN. The output voltage range is 0V to 2.5V. The voltage of  
ICM is proportional to the voltage drop across CSIP and CSIN, and  
is given by Equation 1:  
The ISL95871C charges the battery with constant charge current,  
set by the ChargeCurrent register, until the battery voltage rises to  
a voltage set by the ChargeVoltage register. The charger will then  
operate at a constant voltage. The adapter current is monitored  
and if the adapter current rises to the limit set by the InputCurrent  
register, battery charge current is reduced so the charger does not  
reduce the adapter current available to the system.

CSIP  
where I  
is the DC current drawn from the AC-adapter. It is  
INPUT  
recommended to have an RC filter at the ICM output for  
minimizing the switching noise.  
The ISL95871C features a voltage regulation loop (VCOMP) and 2  
current regulation loops (ICOMP). The VCOMP voltage regulation  
loop monitors VFB to limit the battery charge voltage. The ICOMP  
current regulation loop limits the battery charging current  
delivered to the battery to ensure that it never exceeds the  
current set by the ChargeCurrent register. The ICOMP current  
regulation loop also limits the input current drawn from the  
AC-adapter to ensure that it never exceeds the limit set by the  
InputCurrent register, and to prevent a system crash and  
AC-adapter overload.  
VDDP Regulator  
VDDP provides a 5.2V supply voltage from the internal LDO  
regulator from DCIN and can deliver up to 30mA of continuous  
current. The MOSFET drivers are powered by VDDP. VDDP also  
supplies power to VDD through a low pass filter as shown in  
Figure 4 on page 4. Bypass VDDP and VDD with a 1µF capacitor.  
VDDSMB Supply  
The VDDSMB input provides power to the SMBus interface. Connect  
VDDSMB to VDD, or apply an external supply to VDDSMB to keep the  
SMBus interface active while the supply to DCIN is removed. When  
VDDSMB is biased, the internal registers are maintained. Bypass  
VDDSMB to AGND with a 0.1µF or greater ceramic capacitor.  
PWM Control  
The ISL95871C employs a fixed frequency PWM control  
architecture with a feed-forward function. The feed-forward  
function maintains a constant modulator gain of 11 to achieve fast  
line regulation as the input voltage changes.  
Short Circuit Protection and 0V Battery  
Charging  
Since the battery charger will regulate the charge current to the  
limit set by the ChargeCurrent register, it automatically has short  
circuit protection and is able to provide the charge current to  
wake up an extremely discharged battery. Undervoltage trickle  
charge folds back current if there is a short circuit on the output.  
The duty cycle of the buck regulator is controlled by the lower of the  
voltages on ICOMP and VCOMP. The voltage on ICOMP and VCOMP  
are inputs to a Lower Voltage Buffer (LVB) whose output is the lower  
of the 2 inputs. The output of the LVB is compared to an internal  
400kHz ramp to produce the Pulse Width Modulated signal that  
controls the UFET and LFET gate drivers. An internal clamp holds the  
higher of the 2 voltages (0.3V) above the lower voltage. This speeds  
the transition from voltage loop control to current loop control or vice  
versa.  
Undervoltage Detect and Battery Trickle  
Charging  
The ISL95871C can operate up to 99.6% duty cycle if the input  
voltage drops close to or below the battery charge voltage (drop  
out mode). The DC/DC converter has a timer to prevent the  
frequency from dropping into the audible frequency range.  
If the voltage at VFB falls below 2.5V, ISL95871C reduces the  
charge current limit to 128mA to trickle charge the battery.  
When the voltage rises above 2.7V, the charge current reverts to  
the programmed value in the ChargeCurrent register.  
To prevent boosting of the system bus voltage, the battery  
charger drives the lower FET in a way that prevents negative  
inductor current.  
Over-Temperature Protection  
If the die temperature exceeds +150°C, it stops charging. Once  
the die temperature drops below +125°C, charging will start-up  
again.  
An adaptive gate drive scheme is used to control the dead time  
between two switches. The dead time control circuit monitors the  
LFET gate driver output and prevents the upper side MOSFET  
from turning on until 20ns after the LFET gate driver falls below  
Overvoltage Protection  
ISL95871C has an Overvoltage Protection circuit that limits the  
output voltage when the battery is removed or disconnected by a  
pulse charging circuit. If CSON exceeds the output voltage set  
1V V , preventing cross-conduction and shoot-through. The  
GS  
same occurs for LFET turn on.

Each address and data transmission uses 9-clock pulses. The ninth

master sends 7-slave address bits and a R/W bit during the next 8-  
clock pulses. During the ninth clock pulse, the device that recognizes  
its own address holds the data line low to acknowledge. The  
acknowledge bit is also used by both the master and the slave to  
acknowledge receipt of register addresses and data (see Figure 24).

ISL95871C  
Read address = 0b00010011 (0X13) and  
SMBus Transactions  
All transactions start with a control byte sent from the SMBus  
master device. The control byte begins with a Start condition,  
followed by 7-bits of slave address (0001001 for the ISL95871C)  
followed by the R/W bit. The R/W bit is 0 for a write or 1 for a read. If  
any slave devices on the SMBus bus recognize their address, they  
will Acknowledge by pulling the serial data (SDA) line low for the last  
clock cycle in the control byte. If no slaves exist at that address or  
are not ready to communicate, the data line will be 1, indicating a  
Not Acknowledge condition.  
Write address = 0b00010010 (0X12).  
In addition, the ISL95871C has two identification (ID) registers: a  
16-bit device ID register and a 16-bit manufacturer ID register.  
The data (SDA) and clock (SCL) pins have Schmitt-trigger inputs  
that can accommodate slow edges. Choose pull-up resistors for  
SDA and SCL to achieve rise times according to the SMBus  
specifications. The ISL95871C is controlled by the data written to  
the registers described in Table 1.  
Once the control byte is sent, and the ISL95871C acknowledges  
it, the 2nd byte sent by the master must be a register address  
byte such as 0x14 for the ChargeCurrent register. The register  
address byte tells the ISL95871C which register the master will  
write or read. See Table 1 for details of the registers. Once the  
ISL95871C receives a register address byte it responds with an  
acknowledge.  
Battery Charger Registers  
The ISL95871C supports five battery-charger registers that use  
either Write-Word or Read-Word protocols, as summarized in  
Table 1. ManufacturerID and DeviceID are “read only” registers  
and can be used to identify the ISL95871C. On the ISL95871C,  
ManufacturerID always returns 0x0049 (ASCII code for “I” for  
Intersil) and DeviceID always returns 0x0001.  
Byte Format  
Enabling and Disabling Charging  
Every byte put on the SDA line must be eight bits long and must  
be followed by an acknowledge bit. Data is transferred with the  
most significant bit first (MSB) and the least significant bit last  
(LSB).  
After applying power to ISL95871C, the internal registers contain  
their POR values (see Table 1). The POR values for charge current  
and charge voltage are 0x0000. These values disable charging.  
To enable charging, the ChargeCurrent register must be written  
with a number >0x007F and the ChargeVoltage register must be  
written with a number >0x000F. Charging can be disabled by  
writing 0x0000 to either of these registers.  
ISL95871C and SMBus  
The ISL95871C receives control inputs from the SMBus interface.  
The serial interface complies with the SMBus protocols as  
documented in the System Management Bus Specification V1.1,  
which can be downloaded from www.smbus.org. The ISL95871C  
uses the SMBus Read-Word and Write-Word protocols (see Figure  
25) to communicate with the smart battery. The ISL95871C is an  
SMBus slave device and does not initiate communication on the  
bus. It responds to the addresses in the following.

Setting Charge Voltage  
Charge voltage is set by writing a valid 16-bit number to the  
ChargeVoltage register. This 16-bit number translates to a  
65.535V full-scale voltage. The ISL95871C ignores the first 4  
LSBs and uses the next 11 bits to set the voltage DAC. The  
charge voltage range of the ISL95871C is 1.024V to 19.200V.  
Numbers requesting charge voltage greater than 19.200V result  
in a ChargeVoltage of 19.200V. All numbers requesting charge  
voltage below 1.024V result in a voltage set point of zero, which  
terminates charging. Upon initial power-up or reset, the  
ChargeVoltage and ChargeCurrent registers are reset to 0 and  
the charger remains shut down until valid numbers are sent to  
the ChargeVoltage and ChargeCurrent registers. Use the  
Write-Word protocol (see Figure 25) to write to the ChargeVoltage  
register. The register address for ChargeVoltage is 0x15. The  
16-bit binary number formed by D15–D0 represents the charge  
voltage set point in mV. However, the resolution of the  
ISL95871C is 16mV because the D0–D3 bits are ignored as  
shown in Table 2. The D15 bit is also ignored because it is not  
needed to span the 1.024V to 19.2V range. Table 2 shows the  
mapping between the charge-voltage set point and the 16-bit  
number written to the ChargeVoltage register. The ChargeVoltage  
register can be read back to verify its contents.

ChargeCurrent registers are reset to 0 and the charger is  
Setting Charge Current  
disabled. To start the charger, write valid numbers to the  
ChargeVoltage and ChargeCurrent registers. The ChargeCurrent  
register uses the Write-Word protocol (see Figure 25). The  
register code for ChargeCurrent is 0x14 (0b00010100). Table 3  
shows the mapping between the charge current set point and the  
ChargeCurrent number. The ChargeCurrent register can be read  
back to verify its contents.  
ISL95871C has a 16-bit ChargeCurrent register that sets the  
battery charging current. ISL95871C controls the charge current  
by controlling the CSOP-CSON voltage. The register’s LSB  
translates to 10µV at CSON-CSOP. With a 10mΩ charge current  
sensing resistor (R in Figure 4 on page 4), the LSB translates to  
S2  
1mA charge current. The ISL95871C ignores the first 7 LSBs and  
uses the next 6 bits to control the current DAC. The  
charge-current range of the ISL95871C is 0A to 8.064A (using a  
10mΩ current-sense resistor). All numbers requesting charge  
current above 8.064A result in a current setting of 8.064A. All  
numbers requesting charge current between 0mA to 128mA  
result in a current setting of 0mA. The default charge current  
setting at Power-On Reset (POR) is 0mA. To stop charging, set  
ChargeCurrent to 0. Upon initial power-up, the ChargeVoltage and  
The ISL95871C includes a fault limiter for low battery conditions.  
If the battery voltage is less than 2.5V, the charge current is  
temporarily set to 128mA. The ChargeCurrent register is  
preserved and becomes active again when the battery voltage is  
higher than 2.7V. This function effectively provides a foldback  
current limit, which protects the charger during short circuit and  
overload.

limit use the SMBus to write a 16-bit InputCurrent register using  
Setting Input-Current Limit  
the data format listed in Table 4. The InputCurrent register uses  
the Write-Word protocol (see Figure 25). The register code for  
InputCurrent is 0x3F (0b00111111). The InputCurrent register  
can be read back to verify its contents.  
The total power from an AC-adapter is the sum of the power  
supplied to the system and the power into the charger and battery.  
When the input current exceeds the set input current limit, the  
ISL95871C decreases the charge current to provide priority to  
system load current. As the system load rises, the available charge  
current drops linearly to zero. Thereafter, the total input current  
can increase to the limit of the AC-adapter.  
The ISL95871C ignores the first 7 LSBs and uses the next 6 bits to  
control the input-current DAC. The input-current range of the  
ISL95871C is from 256mA to 11.004A. All 16-bit numbers  
requesting input current above 11.004A result in an input-current  
setting of 11.004A. All 16-bit numbers requesting input current  
between 0mA to 256mA result in an input-current setting of 0mA.  
The default input-current-limit setting at POR is 256mA. When  
choosing the current-sense resistor RS1, carefully calculate its  
power rating. Take into account variations in the system’s load  
current and the overall accuracy of the sense amplifier. Note that  
the voltage drop across RS1 contributes additional power loss,  
which reduces efficiency. System currents normally fluctuate as  
portions of the system are powered up or put to sleep. Without  
input current regulation, the input source must be able to deliver  
the maximum system current and the maximum charger-input  
current. By using the input-current-limit circuit, the output-current  
capability of the AC wall adapter can be lowered, reducing system  
cost.  
The internal amplifier compares the differential voltage between  
CSIP and CSIN to a scaled voltage set by the InputCurrent  
register. The total input current is the sum of the device supply  
current, the charger input current, and the system load current.  
The total input current can be estimated as shown in Equation 2.

to a 2mA LSB and a 131.071A full scale current using a 10mΩ  
current-sense resistor (RS1 in Figure 4 on page 4). Equivalently,  
the 16-bit InputCurrent number sets the voltage across CSIP and  
CSIN inputs in 20µV per LSB increments. To set the input current

ISL95871C  
The ISL95871C does not support reading more than 1 register  
per transaction.  
Charger Timeout  
The ISL95871C includes 2 timers to insure the SMBus master is  
active and to prevent overcharging the battery. ISL95871C will  
terminate charging if the charger has not received a write to the  
ChargeVoltage or ChargeCurrent register within 175s or if the  
SCL line is low for more than 25ms. If a time-out occurs, either  
ChargeVoltage or ChargeCurrent registers must be written to  
re-enable charging.  
Application Information  
The following battery charger design refers to the “Typical  
Application Circuit” (see Figure 4 on page 4), where typical  
battery configuration of 3S2P is used. This section describes how  
to select the external components including the inductor, input  
and output capacitors, switching MOSFETs and current sensing  
resistors.  
ISL95871C Data Byte Order  
Each register in ISL95871C contains 16-bits or 2-, 8-bit bytes. All  
data sent on the SMBus is in 8 bit bytes and 2 bytes must be  
written or read from each register in ISL95871C. The order in  
which these bytes are transmitted appears reversed from the  
way they are normally written. The LOW byte is sent first and the  
HI byte is sent second. For example, When writing 0x41A0, 0xA0  
is written first and 0x41 is sent second.  
Inductor Selection  
The inductor selection has trade-offs between cost, size,  
crossover frequency and efficiency. For example, the lower the  
inductance, the smaller the size, but ripple current is higher. This  
also results in higher AC losses in the magnetic core and the  
windings, which decreases the system efficiency. On the other  
hand, the higher inductance results in lower ripple current and  
smaller output filter capacitors, but it has higher DCR (DC  
resistance of the inductor) loss, lower saturation current and has  
slower transient response. Thus, the practical inductor design is  
based on the inductor ripple current being ±15% to ±20% of the  
maximum operating DC current at maximum input voltage.  
Writing to the Internal Registers  
In order to set the charge current, charge voltage or input current,  
valid 16-bit numbers must be written to ISL95871C’s internal  
registers via the SMBus.  
To write to a register in the ISL95871C, the master sends a  
control byte with the R/W bit set to 0, indicating a write. If it  
receives an Acknowledge from the ISL95871C it sends a register  
address byte setting the register to be written (i.e., 0x14 for the  
ChargeCurrent register). The ISL95871C will respond with an  
Acknowledge. The master then sends the lower data byte to be  
written into the desired register. The ISL95871C will respond with  
an Acknowledge. The master then sends the higher data byte to  
be written into the desired register. The ISL95871C will respond  
with an Acknowledge. The master then issues a Stop condition,  
indicating to the ISL95871C that the current transaction is  
complete. Once this transaction completes the ISL95871C will  
begin operating at the new current or voltage.

The ISL95871C has the ability to read from 5 internal registers.  
Prior to reading from an internal register, the master must first  
select the desired register by writing to it and sending the registers  
address byte. This process begins by the master sending a control  
byte with the R/W bit set to 0, indicating a write. Once it receives  
an Acknowledge from the ISL95871C it sends a register address  
byte representing the internal register it wants to read. The  
ISL95871C will respond with an Acknowledge. The master must  
then respond with a Stop condition. After the Stop condition, the  
master follows with a new Start condition then sends a new  
control byte with the ISL95871C slave address and the R/W bit set  
to 1, indicating a read. The ISL95871C will Acknowledge then send  
the lower byte stored in that register. After receiving the byte, the  
master Acknowledges by holding SDA low during the 9th clock  
pulse. ISL95871C then sends the higher byte stored in the register.  
After the second byte neither device holds SDA low (No

current must be smaller than the rated RMS current in the  
capacitor datasheet. Non-tantalum chemistries (ceramic,  
aluminum, or OSCON) are preferred due to their resistance to  
power-up surge currents when the AC-adapter is plugged into the  
battery charger. For Notebook battery charger applications, it is  
recommended that ceramic capacitors or polymer capacitors  
from Sanyo be used due to their small size and reasonable cost.  
Where the duty cycle D is the ratio of the output voltage (battery  
voltage) over the input voltage for continuous conduction mode  
which is typical operation for the battery charger. During the  
battery charge period, the output voltage varies from its initial  
battery voltage to the rated battery voltage. Thus, the duty cycle  
varies from 0.53 for the minimum battery voltage of 7.5V  
(2.5V/Cell) to 0.88 for the maximum battery voltage of 12.6V.  
The maximum RMS value of the output ripple current occurs at  
the duty cycle of 0.5 and is expressed as Equation 7:  
Loop Compensation Design  
ISL95871C has three closed loop control modes. One, controls  
the output voltage when the battery is fully charged or absent. A  
second, controls the current into the battery when charging and  
the third, limits current drawn from the adapter. The charge  
current and input current control loops are compensated by a  
single capacitor on the ICOMP pin. The voltage control loop is  
compensated by a network on the VCOMP pin. Descriptions of  
these control loops and guidelines for selecting compensation  
components will be given in the following sections. Which loop  
controls the output is determined by the minimum current buffer  
and the minimum voltage buffer shown in the “Functional Block  
Diagram” on page 4. These three loops will be described  
separately.

maximum RMS current is 0.19A. A typical 20µF ceramic  
capacitor is a good choice to absorb this current and also has  
very small size. Organic polymer capacitors have high  
capacitance with small size and have a significant equivalent  
series resistance (ESR). Although ESR adds to ripple voltage, it  
also creates a high frequency zero that helps the closed loop  
operation of the buck regulator.  
EMI considerations usually make it desirable to minimize ripple  
current in the battery leads. Beads may be added in series with  
the battery pack to increase the battery impedance at 400kHz  
switching frequency. Switching ripple current splits between the  
battery and the output capacitor depending on the ESR of the  
output capacitor and battery impedance. If the ESR of the output  
capacitor is 10mΩ and battery impedance is raised to 2Ω with a  
bead, then only 0.5% of the ripple current will flow in the battery.  
Transconductance Amplifiers GMV, GMI and  
GMS  
ISL95871C uses several transconductance amplifiers (also  
known as gm amps). Most commercially available op amps are  
voltage controlled voltage sources with gain expressed as

VCOMP to a duty cycle by comparing VCOMP to a triangle wave  
m
ISL95871C's buck regulator operates in discontinuous current  
mode (DCM) when the load current is less than half the  
peak-to-peak current in the inductor. After the low-side FET turns  
off, the phase voltage rings due to the high impedance with both  
FETs off. This can be seen in Figure 15 on page 10. Adding a  
snubber (resistor in series with a capacitor) from the phase node  
to ground can greatly reduce the ringing. In some situations a  
snubber can improve output ripple and regulation.

analysis, the battery is modeled by its internal resistance. The  
total output resistance is the sum of the sense resistor and the  
internal resistance of the MOSFETs, inductor and capacitor.  
Figure 26 shows the small signal model of the pulse width  
modulator (PWM), power stage, output filter and battery.  
The snubber capacitor should be approximately twice the  
parasitic capacitance on the phase node. This can be estimated  
by operating at very low load current (100mA) and measuring the  
ringing frequency.

A filter should be added between RS2 and CSOP and CSON to

to leakage current into CSOP. The filter cutoff frequency is  
calculated using Equation 15:  
FIGURE 26. SMALL SIGNAL AC MODEL

current at the limit. Above the adapter current limit, the

controls the charger output. Figure 29 shows the adapter current

The resistance R is a combination of MOSFET r  
DCR, R and the internal resistance of the battery (normally  
between 50mΩ and 200mΩ). The worst case for voltage mode  
control is when the battery is absent. This results in the highest Q

As a general rule, power layers should be close together, either  
on the top or bottom of the board, with signal layers on the  
opposite side of the board. As an example, layer arrangement on  
a 4-layer board is shown below:

Component Placement  
The highest priority for placement close to the IC are the high current  
components. Place the VIN capacitors as close as possible to the VIN  
and PGND pins. The power inductor, charge current sense resistor  
and output caps are the second highest priority. A layer of power  
ground under these components and high current pins on  
ISL95871C (pins 9 through 33) will keep current loops small and  
minimize EMI radiated from this high current loops.

Small signals such as current sense and compensation should be  
placed near their connections to ISL95871C and have an area of  
AGND “quiet ground”) on the adjacent layer. An area of quiet  
ground should be on the layer under ISL95871C pins 1 through 8  
and 34 through 50. The best tie-point between the signal ground  
and the power ground is at the negative side of the output  
capacitor on each side, where there is little noise; a noisy trace  
beneath the IC is not recommended.

AGND and VDD Pin  
CSOP, CSON, CSIP and CSIN Pins  
At least one high quality ceramic decoupling capacitor should be  
used to cross these two pins. The decoupling capacitor can be  
put close to the IC.  
Accurate charge current and adapter current sensing is critical  
for good performance. The current sense resistor connects to the  
CSON and the CSOP pins through a low pass filter with the filter  
capacitor very near the IC (see Figure 4 on page 4). Traces from  
the sense resistor should start at the pads of the sense resistor  
and should be routed close together, through the low pass filter  
and to the CSOP and CSON pins (see Figure 33). The CSON pin is  
also used as the battery voltage feedback. The traces should be  
routed away from the high dv/dt and di/dt pins like PHASE, BOOT  
pins. In general, the current sense resistor should be close to the  
IC. These guidelines should also be followed for the adapter  
current sense resistor and CSIP and CSIN. Other layout  
PGND Pins  
PGND pin should be laid out to the negative side of the relevant  
output capacitor with separate traces. The negative side of the  
output capacitor must be close to the source node of the bottom  
MOSFET. This trace is the return path of LFET gate drive.  
PHASE Pins  
Connect this pin to the output inductor. This trace should be  
short, and positioned away from other weak signal traces. This  
node has a very high dv/dt with a voltage swing from the input  
voltage to ground. No trace should be in parallel with it.  
arrangements should be adjusted accordingly.  
DCIN Pin  
This pin connects to AC-adapter output voltage, and should be  
less noise sensitive.  
BOOT Pin  
This pin carries gate drive current and trace should be as short as  
possible.  
Copper Size for the Phase Node  
The capacitance of PHASE should be kept very low to minimize  
ringing. It would be best to limit the size of the PHASE node  
copper in strict accordance with the current and thermal  
management of the application.

The input and output capacitors of the converters, the source  
terminal of the bottom switching MOSFET PGND should connect  
to the power ground. The other components should connect to  
signal ground. Signal and power ground are tied together at one  
point as close as possible to the ISL95871C.  
FIGURE 33. CURRENT SENSE RESISTOR LAYOUT  
Clamping Capacitor for Switching MOSFET  
It is recommended that ceramic capacitors be used closely  
connected to VIN and PGND (the drain of the high-side MOSFET  
and the source of the low-side MOSFET). This capacitor reduces  
the noise and the power loss of the MOSFETs.
