What is Reducing MOSFET Switching Losses about?

This document proposes a new technique to reduce losses in power MOSFETs used in hard-switched converters. Typically, MOSFETs have an internal body diode with poor reverse recovery that causes significant switching losses. The technique uses an additional low-voltage MOSFET connected in series to block the internal body diode during the dead-time between MOSFET switches. This allows the inductor current to freewheel through the channels of the MOSFETs instead of the body diode, reducing losses. Experimental
