An effective power circuit consists of more than just stationary components like SiC and GaN MOSFETs. The gate driver, an autonomous component, precedes the electronic switches and guarantees optimal ...
Toshiba has introduced an opto-isolated SiC gate driver, that includes an active Miller clamp to tame self-turn-on behaviour in the driven device. Named TLP5814H, it is a “gate driver photocoupler ...
Check out our coverage of APEC 2024. This article is part of the TechXchange: Gallium Nitride (GaN). The GaN FET is becoming widely preferred in power systems such as high-frequency DC-DC converters.
When designing a motor control circuit, it’s vital to determine how to deliver the high current required to drive the motor. Designers must choose whether to use monolithic integrated circuits (ICs) ...
How is peak current defined? A close look at datasheet headlines and how they vary. A case study that compares different drivers and peak currents. One question often comes up when considering what ...
