[0013] Figure 1 This is the circuit diagram of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] Example 1

[0016] Please see Figure 1 This utility model provides the following technical solution: a MOSFET fast turn-off control circuit, including a MOSFET control circuit and a residual voltage discharge circuit. The MOSFET control circuit includes a MOSFET Q2, which is an N-channel MOSFET. The source of MOSFET Q2 is connected to ground, and the drain of MOSFET Q2 is connected to one end of a load R4. The other end of the load R4 is connected to VCC. The residual voltage discharge circuit includes a transistor Q1, which is a PNP type, model S8550, serving as a residual voltage discharge switch. The collector of transistor Q1 is connected to ground, and the emitter of transistor Q1 is connected to pin 2 of resistor R2. Pin 1 of resistor R2 is connected to both the gate of MOSFET Q2 and the base of transistor Q1. The resistance of resistor R2 is 10Ω, serving as a residual voltage discharge resistor. The base of transistor Q1 is also connected to a PIN terminal, which is the input terminal for the switch control signal of MOSFET Q2.

[0017] Specifically, a diode D1 is connected between the base of transistor Q1 and the gate of MOSFET Q2. The diode D1 is an SS14 type diode, which acts as a reverse blocking diode to prevent residual voltage discharge current from flowing to the PIN terminal. The positive terminal of diode D1 is connected to the base of transistor Q1, and the negative terminal of diode D1 is connected to the gate of MOSFET Q2.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the control signal input at the PIN terminal is high, diode D1 is forward-biased and transistor Q1 is reverse-biased and cut off. The voltage between the gate and source of MOSFET Q2 is high, MOSFET Q2 is turned on, and load R4 is turned on. When the control signal input at the PIN terminal is low, the residual voltage between the gate and source of MOSFET Q2 causes diode D1 to be reverse-biased and cut off. The residual voltage current flows through resistor R2, the Veb of transistor Q1, and resistor R1, causing transistor Q1 to saturate and turn on. The residual voltage between the gate and source of MOSFET Q2 is discharged to ground through resistor R2 and transistor Q1, realizing rapid discharge of the residual voltage between the gate and source of MOSFET Q2, accelerating the turn-off of MOSFET Q2, and improving the reliability and stability of MOSFET turn-off control.

[0019] This invention utilizes a residual voltage discharge circuit at the gate control input terminal of a MOSFET to rapidly discharge the residual voltage between the gate and source of the MOSFET to ground, ensuring that the MOSFET can be quickly turned off during turn-off control, thereby improving the reliability of MOSFET turn-off control. It features simple structure, high reliability, and low cost.

[0020] Specifically, a resistor R1 with a resistance of 100Ω is connected between the base of transistor Q1 and its pin terminal.

[0021] The above technical solution is used as a current-limiting resistor for the control terminal signal.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that, specifically, a resistor R3 is connected between the gate and the source of MOS transistor Q2, and the resistance of resistor R3 is 10KΩ.

[0024] The above technical solution is used as the bias resistor between the gate and source of MOS transistor Q2.

[0025] In summary, this invention achieves rapid grounding of the residual voltage between the gate and source of the MOSFET through a residual voltage discharge circuit at the gate control input terminal of the MOSFET, ensuring that the MOSFET can be quickly turned off during turn-off control, thereby improving the reliability of the MOSFET turn-off control. It features simple structure, high reliability, and low cost.
