Gate-driver circuit with a variable supply voltage to influence the switching losses

Gate-driver circuit with a variable supply voltage to influence the switching losses

The lifetime of semiconductor devices used in power electronics depends on the junction temperature. With a suitable junction temperature control system, the lifetime of semiconductor devices is extended. These control systems require a possibility to influence the power losses of the semiconductor...
