Gregory Mirsky

Gregory Mirsky, is a senior electrical engineer with Vitesco Technologies, a spinoff of Continental Automotive Systems, in Deer Park, Ill., which he joined in March 2015. In his current role, Gregory performs design verification on various projects, designs and implements new methods of electronic circuit analysis, and runs workshops on MathCAD 15 usage for circuit design and verification.

He obtained a Ph.D. degree in physics and mathematics from the Moscow State Pedagogical University, Russia. During his graduate work, Gregory designed hardware for the high-resolution spectrometer for research of highly compensated semiconductors and high-temperature superconductors. He also holds an MS degree from the Baltic State Technical University, St. Petersburg, Russia where he majored in missile and aircraft electronic systems.

Gregory holds numerous patents and publications in technical and scientific magazines in Great Britain, Russia and the United States. Outside of work, Gregory’s hobby is traveling, which is associated with his wife’s business as a tour operator, and he publishes movies and pictures about his travels online.

  1. Depletion-mode MOSFET kick-starts power supply
    Many switch-mode power supplies use “kick-start” circuits to initialize their offline operation. These circuits may be simple resistors, such as IRIS4015, or more complicated arrangements built with bipolar transistors or MOSFETs. These transistors provide the...

  2. Cascode Configuration Removes Miller Effect, Boosts PFC Performance
    The power factor corrector (PFC) front end of an off-line power supply is subject to the operating frequency limitation caused by the Miller Effect of its associated power MOSFET. This effect is a property of any transistor configuration with a common source (MOSFET) or common...

  3. Improved Power-Factor Corrector Further Minimizes Miller Effect
    In [1] a cascode connection of two MOSFETs helped eliminate the Miller effect and significantly improve power factor correction (PFC) performance. Recall that the Miller effect is a very large increase in a transistor’s apparent input capacitance due to negative...
