Thermal modelling of power semiconductor modules in power electronic applications by Choudhury, K

“…It provides the placement of power semiconductor devices. One of the most important design constraints of power module is maximum junction temperature of semiconductor devices. …”

Digital active gate drives to increase power semiconductor performance by Jones, GT

“…<p>Active Gate Drives (AGDs) tailor the signal applied to the gates of power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) to improve the switching behaviour of these power semiconductor devices. The AGDs can slow down the transition when switching between the off and on states (and vice-versa) to reduce peak transient voltages and electromagnetic interference (EMI). …”
