another small breakthrough on our NERD technology.

@picowatt:

Here's Fig 6 from Test 3.

It looks to me like there is some current flowing during the non-oscillating portions. It's really too bad we don't have the common drain trace, which would give a lot more information. The CVR trace is set to 2 v/div and is showing about half a minor division up from zero during the non-osc phase, so that would be around 0.2 volts positive drop.

Recalling that the CVR is 0.25 ohms, that means around 800 mA flowing, I suppose.

Guys, again, TK is trying very hard to imply that there's 50 watts or thereby being delivered.  Unfortunately he's not factored in the impedance resulting from that applied frequency.  That changes the picture ENTIRELY.

The gate drive signal is picked up by a scope probe hooked up to the board. It is showing what the FG is putting out and what the circuit is seeing. No amount of wishful fantasy about how an offset control functions can change this fact.

Fuzzy.... you have uncovered another SMOKING GUN !! The scope shots were saved DAYS, even WEEKS before the Single mosfet photo was presented to us as the device CURRENTLY being tested at that time. And it's clear that the one in the picture has NOT YET had the Gang of Four added.

Rosemary, the power dissipated in a resistance is given by P=I^2 R. In this case we have 800 mA flowing through 11.11 ohms at the load. By Ohm's Law, we then have P=(. 8) (. 8) (11.11) = a little over seven Watts, not 50.

And you know nothing of impedance, obviously.

TinselKoala your attempts at implying that our results are misrepresented are really somewhat pitiful.  The 'single mosfet' as you put it - photo - was the VERY FIRST PHOTOGRAPH OF THE VERY FIRST CIRCUIT AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF OUR SOJOURN INTO THESE NEW TESTS.  What a sad little effort to imply falsification of data.  Your efforts are getting transparently absurd.  You need to do better.

The dates of the photo and the scope shots do not support your argument. And we know already how many times you have argued strongly for a wrong position -- like the "50 watts" above -- , and later had to retract it in public. "Trust me on this".... and then you had to apologise to me AGAIN for being wrong and pig-headed about it.
I don't know what is the case here, I'm just going by Fuzzy's posts... but I certainly find him to be much more reliable than you.
