Series-Connection of Silicon Carbide MOSFET Modules using Active Gate-Drivers with dv/dt Control
… voltage SiC MOSFET modules operated as a single series-connected switch using active gate control. Both multilevel and two-level topologies are capable of achieving higher blocking voltages in high-power converter applications. Compared to multilevel topologies, two-level switching topologies are …
