Why negative gate driving voltage? In this Tech Chat, we discuss the different gate drive levels of Wolfspeed Gen3 SiC MOSFETs – how adding negative gate bias improves noise immunity, avoiding false turn-on in a half bridge configuration and the recommendation to use negative voltage for a Totem Pole half bridge topology due to cross-talk.
