Abstract

Utilization of GaN devices for cryogenic power electronics converters ensures higher efficiency and density. This paper presents an application of GaN device for the development of a low temperature current source inverter (CSI). A detailed investigation about influence of layout parasitics onto switching speed, and device over voltages/currents of a CSI is carried out. The paper also optimizes the commutation power loop by having a “Y” shaped layout for CSI with inductance of 5.25 nH. The design concept is validated with experiments by developing a three phase CSI with GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), where design of power loop inductance has also been verified.
