Unlike conventional driver schemes, RGD not only recovers gate drive energy, but significantly reduces switching time, and associated loss by providing a constant gate charge/discharge current.
RGD solves the following issues common to existing schemes:
1. High switching losses,
2. Slow turn-on and turn-off transitions, and
3. A lack of Cdv/dt immunity.
With the use of RGD, the switching frequency and the resulting dynamic performance can be increased by a factor of three, reducing the component size and cost as well as the corresponding board real estate. less | Primary: Queen's University
