   Piezoelectric transformer for complementary MOSFET
By D. Vasic; F. Costa; E. Sarraute [View]
[Download]

Abstract: In this paper, a new complementary gate drive for power MOSFET'S and IGBT'S is presented based on the use of a piezoelectric transformer. The transformer structure has been designed in order to optimise the response time, the efficiency, the available power at the transformer secondary and the total volume. A study has been carried out about the propagation of common mode currents between the top-switch and the bottom-switch of the inverter leg throughout the drive.

   Design and application of an intelligent IGBT inverter module for low power drives

Abstract: New series of SPMs (Smart Power Modules), which are fully optimized intelligent integrated IGBT inverter modules for lower power motor drive applications, are introduced. One is called Mini-SPM providing the operating current rating of 10A and the other is Tiny-SPM with the 3A rating. They are very small by employing size-related design and highly integrated building blocks having the built-in HVICs as a gate driver which offer more simplicity and compactness leading to a high cost reduction and high reliability of the entire system. They also provide technical advantages such as good thermal performances, the high latch immunity and dv/dt controlled HVIC driving
