Project Operator National Taiwan University
Project Host 陳景然
Summary
This technology is a closed-loop SiC driver IC designed for high-speed switching applications. It features slope detection and active compensation to precisely control di/dt and dv/dt, reducing EMI and overshoot. The integrated current source and sink enable accurate gate current regulation. A memory-based control mechanism further enhances switching stability by iteratively adjusting to the target slew rate. The solution is ideal for high-efficiency, high-power-density power conversion systems.
Scientific Breakthrough
This technology overcomes the limitations of conventional fixed-resistor gate drivers by integrating slope detection, active compensation, and memory-based control into a single IC. It enables real-time adjustment of gate current and switching slew rate, achieving improved precision and stability.
Industrial Applicability
This technology is suitable for EVs, power modules, and renewable energy systems. It features dynamic slew rate control to suppress EMI and improve switching quality. The design addresses SiC parameter variation and parasitic effects with precision gate control. It reduces system design complexity and sorting costs. Overall, it enhances power conversion efficiency and reliability.
