A Novel Power Supply Configuration For GCT Gate Drivers

Abstract

In this paper, a high frequency soft switch DC/DC converter is proposed for power semiconductors (e.g., GCT, GTO). The proposed design includes six Parallel Isolated Power Supplies (PIPS), each supplying a GCT gate driver at regulated 20Vdc. Unlike self-powered supply which is design for powering up the switch gate driver for only one specific converter topology such as CSR, VSR, VSI, etc., our design features a general power supply for …
