If I connect, say 3 or 4 MOSFETs in parallel, to increase current capability, spread heat, and reduce cost..
They are connected in parallel, as in gate-gate, source-source, drain-drain.
It should have 3 times the gate capacitance, but that shouldn't affect speed,
3x the max current,
1/3 the on state resistance.
Right?
What happens to the transconductance?
If it's used as a switch is there a potential problem if they don't turn on all at the same moment, even if only nS apart?
Need help, thanks.
