Abstract

The invention relates to an active MOSFET voltage clamping circuit, a clamping method and a double-pulse test circuit. The voltage clamping circuit comprises a device under test, a drain electrode ofthe device under test is connected with a drain electrode of an active clamping tube, a source electrode of the active clamping tube is connected with a clamping end X node, a source electrode of thedevice under test is connected with a Y node of a clamping end, a capacitor C1, a resistor R1 and a Zener diode D2 are connected in parallel between the X node and the Y node by a diode D1. A capacitor C2, a resistor Rg and a power supply (Vcc) are connected in parallel between a grid electrode of the active clamping tube and the common end of the source electrode of the device under test and theY node of the clamping end; a fixed gate bias (Vcc) is applied to the grid electrode of the active clamping tube, when the device under test is in an off state, a voltage VXY between the clamping endnode X and the clamping end node Y is clamped near Vcc-VTH and MT, and when the device under test is in an on state, the voltage VXY follows a conduction voltage VDSON.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of voltage clamping measurement modules for high-voltage power devices, and in particular to an active MOSFET voltage clamping circuit, a clamping method and a double-pulse test circuit for the dynamic resistance characterization of commercial p-GaN gate power devices. Background technique [0002] Commercial p-GaN gate GaN high-voltage devices have the problem of dynamic resistance degradation during high-voltage switching. The huge drain-source voltage swing makes it difficult to accurately monitor the dynamic on-voltage, which affects the evaluation of the dynamic resistance of the p-GaN gate high-voltage device. The dynamic on-resistance can be characterized by dividing the dynamic on-voltage by the dynamic on-current, and the dynamic on-current can be accurately monitored by the shunt resistance. The dynamic turn-on voltage needs to be measured by a voltage clamp module. [0003] The current voltage clamping...
