Abstract
Many semiconductive switches are operated in series for high voltage operation. The same number of gate drivers are needed to control all the switches, hence, the drivers cause high cost and system complexity. In this study, a simple and low cost gate driver for high voltage thyristor diode switches is investigated. This gate driver can operate several high voltage thyristor diode switches at the same time.
