It appears the only valid data point for these power MOSFET's is the
"total gate charge", Qg. The capacitances listed are useless for
switch applications... their only value would appear to be if you were
designing an RF amplifier.

But here's the useful part...

Cgeffective = 2*Qg/Vg

This is the effective capacitance you must drive to reach your desired
Vg. (Caution, use the Qg graph, not anything in a table... Qg
increases with Vg.)

Even the schmuck-in-chief should find that useful :-}

You said that you calculated the values in the circuit that you posted. Quit
dancing around and show us that calculation.

Patience is a virtue. Are you not virtuous ?:-}

Competence is a virtue too. Are you competent?

I suspect you've never done it, as you claimed you had, and you're still
struggling and stalling.

It's actually been "done" since around noon, but I've been hanging
paintings and doing other honey-do tasks.

So, on Jan 7, when you said "it was calculated", you lied. It took you almost a
week to figure it out.

I didn't lie. I didn't have it all in a compact form, it required
iteration... now it doesn't, see...
