Abstract
A gate drive circuit with high speed, low delay and wide output voltage range is designed which can meet the driving requirements of GaN and SiC FETs in this paper. In order to improve the switching frequency and reduce the input/output delay a high speed output drive circuit with a wide gate voltage range and a low delay OOK TX/RX circuit are proposed. A 10 MHz capacitive isolated gate driver IC with output current of 4 A and output gate voltage of 5 V-25 V is realized in 180 nm BCD process. The test results show that the gate driver achieves the rise and fall time of 1.0 ns and 1.5 ns respectively under 5.0 V supply, and the rise and fall time of 2.5 ns and 3.2 ns respectively under 25 V supply with 10 MHz frequency, and the delay time is 22.5 ns and 25 ns respectively for 5.0 V and 25 V supply.
