This paper presents an advanced overcurrent detection and short circuit protection method for large current full-SiC modules using current sense source terminals. Test results obtained with a newly developed gate driver (for SiC modules) are presented and discussed herewith. This new driver incorporates overcurrent detection, soft-shut-down and active overvoltage clamping.
