This work investigates new gate drive power supply configurations and a novel multi-steppackaging concept in order to improve the performance of series-connected SiC-MOSFETs. The new gate drive configurations are proposed in order to reduce noise currents that circulate in the control part of the electrical system. Furthermore, a new gate drive power supply is proposed to increase the dv/dt of the switching cell. These improvements, i.e., noise current reduction and dv/dt boosting, are achieved by modifying the impedance of the gate drive circuitry. The novel multi-step packaging concept is proposed in order to improve the voltage sharing performance. The proposed package geometry considers optimal dielectric isolation for each device leadi...
