Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to analyze the impact of the Gate Driver System on SiC MOSFETs switching performance by means of Double Pulse Test procedure. A simple Gate Driver System structure has been considered in this analysis, comparing three different configurations. Experimental tests with half bridge converter, have been executed, testing Gate Driver Systems with different SiC MOSFETs.
