It may be driven by different drive topologies depending on the intended application. Table 1: Estimated Power Consumption and switching frequencies for various Gate Drive topologies. Gate Drive Power Switching Drive Topology Consumption Frequency Simple TTL High Low Constant Current Medium Medium High Speed - Boost Capacitor Medium High High Speed - Boost Inductor Low High Proportional Lowest Medium Pulsed Power Medium N/A A: Simple TTL Drive The 2N7635-GA may be driven by 5 V TTL logic using a simple current amplification stage. The current amplifier output current must meet or exceed the steady state gate current, IG,steady, required to operate the 2N7635-GA. An external gate resistor RG, shown in the Figure 15 topology, sets IG,steady to the required level which is dependent on the SJT drain current ID and DC current gain hFE, RG may be calculated from the equation below. The value of VEC,sat can be taken from the PNP datasheet, a partial list of high-temperature PNP and NPN transistors options is given below.

An SJT is rapidly switched from its blocking state to on-state, when the necessary gate charge for turn-on, QG, is supplied by a burst of high gate current until the gate-source capacitance, CGS, and gate-drain capacitance, CGD, are fully charged. Ideally, the burst should terminate when the drain voltage has fallen to its on-state value in order to avoid unnecessary drive losses. A negative voltage peak is recommended for the turn-off transition in order to ensure that the gate current is not being supplied under high dV/dt due to the Miller effect. While satisfactory turn off can be achieved with VGS = 0 V, a negative VGS value may be used in order to speed up the turn-off transition. B:1: High Speed, Low Loss Drive with Boost Capacitor The 2N7635-GA may be driven using a High Speed, Low Loss Drive with Boost Capacitor topology in which multiple voltage levels, a gate resistor, and a gate capacitor are used to provide current peaks at turn-on and turn-off for fast switching and a continuous gate current while in on-state. As shown in Figure 16, in this topology two gate driver ICs are utilized. An external gate resistor RG is driven by a low voltage driver to supply the continuous gate current throughout on-state.and a gate capacitor CG is driven at a higher voltage level to supply a high current peak at turn-on and turn-off. A 3 kV isolated evaluation gate drive board (GA03IDDJT30-FR4) from GeneSiC Semiconductor utilizing this topology is commercially available for high and low-side driving, its datasheet provides additional details about this drive topology. VGH CG Gate Signal IG G VGL D Gate SiC SJT S RG Figure 16: High Speed, Low Loss Drive with Boost Capacitor Topology B:2: High Speed, Low Loss Drive with Boost Inductor A High Speed, Low-Loss Driver with Boost Inductor is also capable of driving the 2N7635-GA at high-speed. It utilizes a gate drive inductor instead of a capacitor to provide the high-current gate current pulses IG,on and IG,off. During operation, inductor L is charged to a specified IG,on current value then made to discharge IL into the SJT gate pin using logic control of S1, S2, S3, and S4, as shown in Figure 17. After turn on, while the device remains on the necessary steady state gate current IG,steady is supplied from source VCC through RG.

A proportional gate driver relies on instantaneous drain current ID feedback to vary the steady state gate current IG,steady supplied to the 2N7635-GA. C:1: Voltage Controlled Proportional Driver A voltage controlled proportional driver relies on a gate drive integrated circuit to detect the 2N7635-GA drain-source voltage VDS during onstate to sense ID. The integrated circuit will then increase or decrease IG in response to ID. This allows IG and gate drive power consumption to reduce while ID is low or for IG to increase when ID increases. A high voltage diode connected between the drain and sense protects the integrated circuit from high-voltage when blocking. A simplified version of this topology is shown in Figure 18. Additional information will be available in the future at http://www.genesicsemi.com/references/product-notes/. HV Diode Sense Gate Signal Proportional Gate Current Driver Signal D G Output IG,steady SiC SJT S Figure 18: Simplified Voltage Controlled Proportional Driver C:2: Current Controlled Proportional Driver The current controlled proportional driver relies on a low-loss transformer in the drain or source path to provide feedback of the 2N7635-GA drain current during on-state to supply IG,steady into the gate. IG,steady will increase or decrease in response to ID at a fixed forced current gain which is set be the turns ratio of the transformer, hforce = ID / IG = N2 / N1. 2N7635-GA is initially tuned-on using a gate current pulse supplied into an RC drive circuit to allow ID current to begin flowing. This topology allows IG,steady and the gate drive power consumption to reduce while ID is relatively low or for IG,steady to increase when ID increases. A simplified version of this topology is shown in Figure 19. Additional information will be available in the future at http://www.genesicsemi.com/references/product-notes/.
