Gate Driver and Feedback Control Design for High Frequency Converter

This paper is about the comparison of the
conventional and self driven gate drivers in terms of
characteristics, performance, operation modes, advantages and
disadvantages. Both are tested with SBC circuit having switching
frequency of 1 MHz. PSpice software is used in designing and
simulating processes. The comparison is carried out based on the
output results of the conventional and self-driven gate drivers.
Type III compensator and the adaptive control scheme are
applied to both switches of SBC circuit. It is found that body loss
has been reduced. The output voltage and current have also
improved in CCM compared to DCM.
