Improved inductive feed-forward for fast turn-on of power semiconductors during hard switching
(2019)
A transformer is used to increase the gate voltage during turn-on, thus reducing the necessary bias voltage of the gate driver. Counteracting the voltage dependency of the gate capacitance of high-voltage power devices, faster transitions are possible. The additional transformer only slighly increases the over-voltage during turn-off.
Novel design for a coreless printed circuit board transformer realizing high bandwidth and coupling
(2019)
Rogowski coils offer galvanic isolation and can measure alternating currents with a high bandwidth. Coreless printed circuit board (PCB) transformers have been used as an alternative to limit the additional stray inductance if a Rogowski coil can not be attached to the circuit. A new PCB transformer layout is proposed to reduce cost, decrease additional stray inductance, increase the bandwidth of current measurements and simplify the integration into existing designs.
