A gate turn-off switch, also known as a gate-controlled switch (GCS) or gate turn-off thyristor (GTO), is similar to an SCR but can be turned off by a negative signal on the gate terminal. GTOs ...

NXP Semiconductors is supplying a family of isolated gate-driver ICs to control the silicon-carbide (SiC) power switches at the heart of ZF Friedrichshafen’s next-gen electric-vehicle (EV) traction ...

Properly designing the gate drive circuit for high-voltage MOSFETs is essential to ensure proper performance from the MOSFET one desires. Far too often, engineers find themselves having difficulty in ...
