Design of Isolated Flyback Converter for IGBT Gate Driver in HEV/EV Powertrain Inverter using ACPL-32JT
Design of Isolated Flyback Converter for IGBT Gate Driver in HEV/EV Powertrain Inverter using ACPL-32JT.Isolated IGBT gate driver requires isolated power supply for safety isolation and level shifting. Unfortunately design of isolated power supply based on standard power control IC is not trivial. Special knowledge and significant verification efforts are required to customize the solution with discrete components which occupy large board space and increase probability of components failure. It is more desirable to integrate power conversion feature into gate driver for ease of design, small footprint and high reliability
