  • Page 4: Description Of The Evaluation Board

    Description of the Evaluation Board The PGA26E07BA-SWEVB006 is a chopper evaluation board using a dedicated X-GaN driver (AN34092B) for measuring the high speed switching characteristics of turn-on and turn-off of the X- GaN power transistor. The dv/dt and di/dt using an inductive load can be measured by controlling the X-GaN power transistor with an external signal.

    *Use only burst mode function from the pulse generator. Do not use continuous pulse mode as this will cause damage to the components and evaluation board.  **For VGS and VDS monitoring, use the coil wire mounted on the evaluation board to minimize any ringing in the waveform.

    Observation of waveform will be easier if the trigger is applied at the rising / falling edge of VGS or VDS1 as shown on Figure 9 above.  If different inductor value is used other than the one provided, please set the pulse width until the desired IL value is achieved.
