Capacitor switching regulations
The charging and discharging of the top FET Q1''s parasitic capacitor C GD with charge Q GD determine most of the Q1 switching time and related losses. In the synchronous buck, the bottom FET Q2 switching loss is small, because Q2 is always turned on after its body diode conducts and is turned off before its body diode conducts, while the ...
