Hi,
As you can see, the single GDT in the hi side means top fet takes all the switch on loss (most of it), bottom one takes most of the turn off loss.
So whats wrong with this..why do the purists hate it?
Why do all use GDT in hi and low side?
(Yellow is upper fet vds...other is lower fet vds)
The lower fet is directly driven here...no GDT
Upper fet is driven by GDT.
Its 130W, 120kHz, 24vout, 180vac input
