Investigation of IGBT switching energy loss and peak overvoltage using digital active gate drives

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the switching energy loss and peak overvoltage occurring in a half-bridge Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) converter which is switched using an Active Gate Drive. A range of voltage profiles is systematically applied to the IGBT gate and t...
