Method to increase the efficiency of a power switching device

A method for limiting a switching current and limiting a voltage drop across a circuit includes the steps of limiting a current sent from a power source to a switching device during a turn on time of the switching device by disposing an inductor device in series between the power source and said swi...

Zusammenfassung:A method for limiting a switching current and limiting a voltage drop across a circuit includes the steps of limiting a current sent from a power source to a switching device during a turn on time of the switching device by disposing an inductor device in series between the power source and said switching device and returning flux energy stored in said inductor device to the power source during a turn off time of the switching device.
