Pre-Switch, Inc. has announced new data proving the efficiency of the company’s architecture at low load as well as a full load. Tests performed on Pre-Switch’s CleanWave2 reference inverter at 100kHz switching speed show the system is 98.5% efficient at 5% load. Peak efficiency is 99.57%. Pre-Switch eliminates switching losses, enabling 10X higher switching frequencies, […]

Three-phase gate drivers double power, boost switching speeds by up to 20x
A soft-switching IGBT and silicon carbide gate driver architecture now covers three-phase power systems. The platform, including the Pre-Drive3 controller board, powered by the Pre-Flex FPGA, and RPG gate driver board, enables a doubling of power output for a typical inverter, or an increase in switching speed by a factor of up to 20 times.
