Abstract |
A high-voltage high-current cascode switch implemented with parallel connected low-voltage MOSFET's as the emitter switch of a high-power bipolar transistor is tested up to 48 kVA and shown to have good turn-off behaviour when switching clamped inductive loads without load-line shaping. Typical waveforms are given and the results of examining turn-off performance over 10-80 A current and 300-600 V voltage ranges, for different drive conditions, are presented. Features of the drive circuit and the optimum drive conditions for minimal storage time and crossover time are discussed. |
