Mastering power electronics test
Leading solutions to test your power electronic designs
The power system on a digital processing board faces issues that are different yet akin to those of logic circuits. These issues involve trade-offs affecting design decisions. Wide bandgap semiconductors such as gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) in power converters help to:
- Decrease the size of the power supply
- Reduce switching losses
- Increase efficiency
- However, the higher switching frequencies also amplify the potential for parasitics within the power converter.
