본 논문은 SiC Mosfet Gate Driver에서 Overcurrent상황 발생시 Mosfet 양단의 전압을 검출함으로써 스위칭 소자를 보호하는 Desaturation detction circuit에 대해 다룬다. IGBT와 다르게 SiC Mosfet의 경우 ohmic 영역과 saturation영역의 구분이 명확하지 않기 때문에 과전류 발생시 Mosfet 양단 전압을 검출하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 이를 보완하기 위하여 Mosfet drain측에 새로운 회로를 추가로 설계함으로써 이를 보완하여 효과적으로 양단전압을 검출한다.

This paper deals with gate drive and power IC for high power devices(600V/200A and 1200V/150A). The proposed gate driver provides high gate driving capability (4 A source, 8 A sink), and over-current protected by means of power transistor desaturation detection. In addition, soft-shutdown function is added to reduce voltage overshoots due to parasitic inductance. This gate drive If is designed, fabricated, and tested using the Dongbu hitek 0.35um BCDMOS process.

Background: Nocturnal hypoxemia occurs in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) and the detection and treatment of nocturnal hypoxemia should be part of the management of COPD patients. We performed this study to evaluate the factors influencing to sleep related arterial oxygen desaturation($SaO_2$) in patients with COPD. Methods: Resting and exercise cardiopulmonary function test, polysomnography, and $SaO_2$ during resting, exercise and sleep were measured in 12 patients with COPD. Results: The $SaO_2$ fell twice as much during sleep as during maximal exercise($13.1{\pm}9.3%$ fall in nocturnal $SaO_2$ vs. $6.4{\pm}3.3%$, p<0.05). Fall in nocturnal $SaO_2$ was well correlated with mean exercise $SaO_2$(r=-0.78, p<0.05), minimum exercise $SaO_2$(r=-0.90, p<0.01), and resting $SaO_2$(Cr=-0.82, p<0.05). Lowest sleep $SaO_2$ was well correlated with mean exercise $SaO_2$(r=0.80, p<0.05), lowest exercise $SaO_2$(r=0.90, p<0.01), and resting $SaO_2$(r=0.84, p<0.05). Conclusion: Resting and exercise $SaO_2$ was well correlated with nocturnal $SaO_2$, but exercise study add no additional information to predicting the nocturnal oxygen desaturation in patients with COPD.
