 Abstract   Active clamping is one major security function of an IGBT driver. Transil diodes are commonly used. This paper details the investigation of an original solution without such diodes. A charged capacitor in series with a fast diode is used. Clamping voltage is continuously adjustable. Experimental results are presented.
