I’m trying to create the loss model of a MOSFET power module and would like to use the MOSFET-with-diode component from the PLECS library instead of using a separate MOSFET and a diode. I found a way to input the diode … --- ## [Calculating switching loss in MOSFET with Diode with vendor thermal description (GaN Systems)](https://forum.plexim.com/t/calculating-switching-loss-in-mosfet-with-diode-with-vendor-thermal-description-gan-systems/1345)
