摘要
The aim of this paper is to discuss new solutions in the design of insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) gate drivers with advanced protections such as two-level turn-on to reduce peak current when turning on the device, two-level turn-off to limit over-voltage when the device is turned off, and an active Miller clamp function that acts against cross conduction phenomena. Afterwards, we describe a new circuit which includes a two-level turn-off driver and an active Miller clamp function. Tests and results for these advanced functions are discussed, with particular emphasis on the influence of an intermediate level in a two-level turn-off driver on overshoot across the IGBT.
