Design Considerations for High-Voltage Insulated Gate Drive Power Supply for 10-kV SiC MOSFET Applied in Medium-Voltage Converter
Li Zhang,Shiqi Ji,Shida Gu,Xingxuan Huang,James Palmer,William Giewont,Fei Fred Wang,Leon M. Tolbert +7 more
TL;DR: The test results demonstrate that the PSR GDPS is more preferable because of lower interwinding capacitance, lower load voltage regulation rate, higher conversion efficiency, and simpler control circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Novel Voltage Balancing Control With dv/dt Reduction for 10-kV SiC MOSFET-Based Medium Voltage Modular Multilevel Converter
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a voltage balancing control, which ensures only two submodules switch their modes in a control cycle, limiting the maximum dv/dt of a single power semiconductor and maintaining the voltage balance performance.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Medium Voltage (13.8 kV) Transformer-less Grid-Connected DC/AC Converter Design and Demonstration Using 10 kV SiC MOSFETs
TL;DR: In this paper, a 5-level MMC based transformerless dc/ac converter is developed for 13.8 kV medium voltage grid using 10 kV SiC MOSFETs.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Parasitic Capacitors' Impact on Switching Performance in a 10 kV SiC MOSFET Based Converter
TL;DR: In this paper, a half bridge phase leg test setup is built to investigate these parasitic capacitors' impact on the switching performance at 6.25 kV, and the impact of the parasitic capacitor in the load inductor is analyzed, which has either short wire or long wire in series.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Design Considerations of High-Voltage-Insulated Gate Drive Power Supply for 10 kV SiC MOSFET in Medium-Voltage Application
Li Zhang,Shiqi Ji,Shida Gu,Xingxuan Huang,James Palmer,William Giewont,Fred Wang,Leon M. Tolbert +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the design of isolated gate driver power supply for 10 kV silicon-carbide (SiC) MOSFET for medium-voltage (MV) applications is discussed.
