Session 24 overview: GaN drivers and converters: Power management subcommittee

GaN power devices have garnered significant attention for their reduced switching losses leading to small-form-factor high-frequency switching converters. However, issues related to reliable GaN gate drivers, level shifters with high common-mode immunity and zero-voltage switching detection remain. This session presents recent advances in gate drivers and ZVS detection schemes for GaNbased power converters.
