| Abstract |
In a modern power converter, the high performance of semiconductor switches, like IGBT’s and
GCT's, imposes hard turn-off to diodes, with fast current gradients resulting in undesirable and
dangerous overvoltages. A new family of optimized diodes has been developed as well as a new test
circuit able to evaluate the diode behavior under real operation conditions. |
