A 48V switch evaluation board supporting fast pulsed capacitor charging with Dual Gate MOSFETs, to minimize system costs (no separate pre-charging path needed). The board is Active clamping capable to dissipate inductive energy from cable harness. The Dual Gate MOSFET operates in linear mode instead of avalanche to increase short circuit robustness.
