Abstract
A turn-off overvoltage limiting for IGBT is described herein. The injection of a sample of the overvoltage across the IGBT in the gate drive to slow down the slope of the gate voltage decrease only during the overvoltage above a predetermined value is described herein. Techniques to increase the parasitic inductance to allow the control to limit an overvoltage at turn off of the second IGBT are also described herein.
