Sugestions needed on power amp schematics to fit these MOSFETs.

[smartx21]

I have got some samples of these MOSFETs:
1) Infineon SPW47N60C2 (600V, 47A, 0.07 ohms, COOL MOS POWER TRANSISTOR)
2) Infineon SPW20N60C3 (650V, 20.7A, 0.19 ohms, COOL MOS POWER TRANSISTOR)
3) Microsemi (APT) 1201R2BLL (not sure: 1200V, 12A, 1.25 ohms, POWER MOS7 FREDFET)
I thought of trying them with Legend Stage models.
Any input?
Thanks.
Regards,
Max.

From the part number, both Infineon devices seem to be N channel, thus you would want to look at designs using a quasi complimentary output.

These are most likely all switching MOSFETs made for switchmode supplies. I'm not sure if they would be usable in a linear application such as a Class AB amp. They would certainly work, but might give poor results.

Feedback from Michael (NMOS amp)

I got this feedback from Michael, about N-MOS amp:

"for NMOS you can use any N Channel Power Mosfet, it will be working without any problems...its not class D...."

Thanks.

I have designed a few amps both quasi and complimentary with switching MOSFETs and had very good results.

Here is Dr. Bora's reply:

"I don't think they are very good for amps. Voltages and currents ... OK, but capacitances are to big - likely problems with drive and stability! Sorry, I am too busy for detailed answers."

Thanks.
