5.2 Calculating VT using ABCD Coefficients
The on-state characteristic I
(i) the well established V
(ii) a set of constants A, B, C, D, forming the coefficients of the representative equation for V
terms of I
The constants, derived by curve fitting software, are given below for hot characteristics. The resulting
values for V
