Product overview

Description

The testing board contains a half-bridge (HB) structure based on two high voltage SiC MOSFETs. The MOSFETs are controlled by isolated gate drivers, which are supplied by isolated DC-DC converters. The system requires external connections for an inductor, source, load, auxiliary supply, and PWM signals. It can be used for testing operation in buck or boost configuration. It is possible to use a low inductance shunt or assemble a coaxial shunt to measure current through the low side MOSFET. In this perspective, the board can be used as a tool for double pulse test (DPT).
