Evaluation and Design of GaN-Based Gate Driver Architectures for High-Efficiency Inverter Modules
NXP Semiconductors
About this role
This is a thesis position to investigate the feasibility and advantages of Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology for inverter modules compared to Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs and IGBTs. The project covers technology benchmarking, development of an optimized GaN gate-driver architecture, and laboratory validation of existing GaN gate-driver designs. The outcome will inform NXP’s adoption strategies and provide design and characterization reports to support next-generation implementations.
