As AI scales, a greater lens is on the upstream power sources that are expected to keep up with rapidly expanding data center deployments. Amperesand is helping build the cornerstone of tomorrow’s grid by developing highly reliable, medium voltage (MV) SiC-based solid state transformers. Read more to learn how Amperesand and Wolfspeed partnered to make it happen.
Evaluation Gate Driver Tool Optimized for the 1700 V BM3 Module Platform
CGD1700HB2P-BM3
Wolfspeed’s CGD1700HB2P-BM3 is a form-factor-fitting, two-channel gate driver for the Gen3 62mm power module platform (BM3). Each of the two gate drive channels features over-current protection, an active Miller clamp, and separate turn-on and turn-off gate resistors for effortlessly tuning switching speeds. Onboard 2 W isolated power supplies support up to 100 kHz switching frequency. The gate driver board features MMCX connectors to accurately measure high-side and low-side VGS with fiber optically isolated probes such as the TIVP1 from Tektronix®.
