My group has been tasked with designing a test for a board that has ten mosfets in parallel. No jumpering allowed. The designers say that adding jumpers and bus bars make the circuit oscillate.
The first thing I want to test is that all of the parts are actually stuffed with the correct part(this sort of stuff happens to us). Perhaps driving the mosfets into the linear region with a modest load and then measuring their individual temperatures with an array of thermistors.
Any thoughts?
This array is capable of sinking 100 amps and there are two arrays on each board. Building fixtures to test operate them at full load is kind of cost prohibitive.
Thanks much, Ed V.
