	Keeping A Switch Within Its SOA With A DSP   By O. A. Eno, D. S. Thompson, J. Coppin	[View]   [Download]
Abstract: Modern advances in simulation allow circuit designers to improve the reliability of their systems. Device utilisation can be greatly improved and failure reduced by understanding the device switching characteristics and ensuring that its performance stays within these bounds. This paper describes the implementation of an online switching device protection system backed up by simulation and confirmed by measured data in a resonant converter system. The same method can be applied in any converter where this could be found beneficial.
