Abstract

This paper discusses Gate-driver circuit for improved switching characteristics. This resonant gate-driver recycles the energy stored in the gate capacitance to reduce the turn-off switching loss associated with a conventional gate-driver. Reducing the loss reduces the power consumption and hence the subsequent power dissipation in the resonant gate-driver. The design considerations of implementing a practical MOSFET gate-driver using this topology are discussed.
