Current balancing control for parallel connected IGBTs using programmable gate driver output resistance
Abstract
A gate driver IC with programmable output resistance (Rout) capable of performing current balancing for parallel connected IGBTs is presented in this paper. This novel method is to dynamically adjust the gate driver Routto minimize the difference in the turn-on/off delay times between parallel connected IGBTs. The programmable gate driver Routis implemented using a segmented output stage technique. This gate driver IC is designed and fabricated using TSMC's 0.18μm BCD Gen-2 process. Experimental results are obtained by measuring the current distribution between two parallel connected IGBTs (600V, 90A). These results indicate an improvement in average current imbalance of 89% and 98% for the turn-on and off periods, respectively.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
