To turn a power MOSFET on, the gate terminal must be set to a voltage at least 5 volts greater than the source terminal. One feature of power MOSFET is that they have a large stray capacitance between the gate and the other terminals. The effect of this is that when the pulse to the gate terminal arrives, it must first charge this capacitance up before the gate voltage can reach the 10 volts required. The gate
