An active diode having an improved transistor turn-off control method is disclosed. The active diode comprises: a comparator for comparing voltages of both ends of a parasitic diode of a transistor; and a gate driver for controlling a gate terminal of the transistor according to the comparison result of the comparator, and estimates a turn-on time of the transistor and uses the same to control the gate terminal of the transistor.

Active diode having improved transistor turn-off control method

An active diode driver for operating a switch of an active rectifier using an active diode is provided. The active diode driver may first control a soft turn-on of the switch and secondly control a hard turn-on of the switch, thereby making it possible for the switch to be softly turned-on.

Active diode driver

An active diode that features improved control of transistor turn-off is provided. Such an active diode may include a comparator to compare voltages between opposite ends of a parasitic diode, and a gate driver to control a gate terminal of the transistor according to the comparison result of the comparator. Furthermore, the active diode may further include an off-timing controller to control the transistor to be turned off at a point in time when voltages of the opposite ends of the parasitic diode turn positive. Thus, the active diode may be turned off when required.

A gate driver driving a switching device is disclosed. The gate driver includes a capacitor which is coupled to the input of the switching device. The gate drive power consumption is reduced by this additional capacitor.
