Abstract

The invention provides a power module, comprising a gallium nitride power switch and a drive circuit. The gallium nitride power switch comprises a drain, a source and a gate. The drive circuit comprises an input end and an output end. The output end of the drive circuit is electrically coupled with the gate of the gallium nitride power switch through an external resistor and is used for changing acurrent of the gate of the gallium nitride power switch by adjusting a resistance value of the external resistor, thereby controlling switch-on or switch-off speed of the gallium nitride power switch. According to the power module provided by the invention, the current of the gate of the gallium nitride power switch is adjusted through utilization of the resistance value of the external resistor,further the switch-on or switch-off speed of the gallium nitride power switch is adjusted, the electromagnetic compatibility of a terminal product is improved, and the performance of the gallium nitride power switch is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a power module and a control method of the power module, in particular to a power module with adjustable switching speed and a control method of the power module. Background technique [0002] As a typical representative of the third-generation semiconductor materials, gallium nitride (GaN), a wide-bandgap semiconductor, has many excellent properties that traditional silicon materials do not have. It is an excellent semiconductor material for high-frequency, high-voltage, high-temperature and high-power applications. With the advancement of gallium nitride technology, gallium nitride power semiconductor devices have broad application prospects in civilian and military fields. [0003] However, the existing power modules using GaN power semiconductor devices cannot externally adjust the switching speed of the power tube, which is very detrimental to the electromagnetic compatibility characteristics of the final product, and also...
