Abstract

We propose a low surge voltage and fast speed gate driver with switched capacitor circuit for Silicon-Carbide (SiC) MOSFET. Because of the high switching frequency of SiC MOSFET, the surge voltage becomes a serious problem which cause a high switching loss and may break the SiC MOSFET. There is a trade-off between surge voltage and switching speed. It is hard to fulfill both of them at the same time by using conventional gate drivers. With the switched capacitor circuit, the proposed gate driver can reduce the surge voltage by 17.2% and the switching time by 8.4% at the turn-off transient. Compared to conventional gate drivers without the switched capacitor circuit, the proposed gate driver can generate negative gate-source voltage without any isolated power supply.
一种基于开关电容电路的低浪涌电压快速栅极驱动电路
我们提出了一种低浪涌电压和快速栅极驱动器与开关电容电路的碳化硅(SiC) MOSFET。由于SiC MOSFET的高开关频率,浪涌电压成为一个严重的问题,它会造成高的开关损耗,并可能破坏SiC MOSFET。在浪涌电压和开关速度之间有一个权衡。传统的栅极驱动器很难同时满足这两个要求。采用开关电容电路,栅极驱动器在关断瞬态时浪涌电压降低17.2%,开关时间降低8.4%。与没有开关电容电路的传统栅极驱动器相比,该栅极驱动器可以在没有隔离电源的情况下产生负的栅源电压。
