Abstract

The invention discloses a driving circuit of a silicon-carbide semiconductor field-effect transistor. The driving circuit comprises a PWM control circuit, a driving signal amplifying circuit, an opening circuit, a turning-off circuit, a gate current-increasing circuit and a voltage change rate control circuit. With the gate current-increasing circuit, the driving current is increased during the opening process of the SiC MOSFET and the rising of the gate-source voltage of the SiC MOSFET is accelerated, so that the opening speed of the SiC MOSFET is increased. With the voltage change rate control circuit, the Miller capacitance between the SiC MOSFET drain and gate is enhanced and the SiC MOSFET drain-source voltage change rate is reduced, so that the current spike during opening of the SiCMOSFET is reduced. After the SiC MOSFET drain-source voltage does not change, a voltage control switch is turned off to avoid the SiC MOSFET false conduction caused by the crosstalk, so that the safeoperation of the SiC MOSFET is ensured.
