Mosfet gate breakdown? You've got to be kidding.
You *are* kidding, right?
Take a look at the datasheets in question; the numbers are in the "abs max" section. Take a look at their detailed methodology, dv/dt, definition of breakdown; there ain't any.
I get *that* part loud and clear.
I blew up one fet, and I let my customer, who was visiting, blow up the other one. A good time was had by all, and we immediately discounted one proposed failure mechanism.
We needed data in 5 minutes, and I got it. I'm glad I didn't commission a team of "testing professionals" to measure these numbers; they would have needed a budget, a test plan, a test fixture, a test data sheet, an environmental chamber, a datalogger, an engineer and three techs, a few meetings, a statistical analysis package, and six months. And, in my experience, would have connected the fet wrong and got nonsense data.
Always!
