Abstract

This paper is about the comparison of the conventional and self driven gate drivers in terms of characteristics, performance, operation modes, advantages and disadvantages. Both are tested with SBC circuit having switching frequency of 1 MHz. PSpice software is used in designing and simulating processes. The comparison is carried out based on the output results of the conventional and self-driven gate drivers. Type III compensator and the adaptive control scheme are applied to both switches of SBC circuit. It is found that body loss has been reduced. The output voltage and current have also improved in CCM compared to DCM.
