Experimental Evaluation and Optimization of GaN Inverter for Motor Drive Applications
The paper deals with the usage of Gallium Nitride FET transistors in an inverter for motor drive applications. The aim of the paper is to give guidelines to motor drive hardware designers on how to minimize the components and optimize the layout in a GaN inverter, while keeping good switching waveforms and minimizing the ringing as a possible source of electro-magnetic interference.
