“…The SC fault can be categorized into two types: hard switching fault (HSF) and fault under load (FUL), which are defined by the time when the SC fault happens at the turn‐on transition and on‐state, respectively. Several SC protection circuits have been proposed in the early works, including desaturation [
8–10], current [
11],
[
12, 13], DC‐link voltage [
14], gate voltage [
15, 16] and gate charge [
17–20], and a SC protection time below 1
s was achieved. The desaturation detection is the most widely used solution with lots of off‐the‐shelf gate driver integrated chips (ICs) [21, 22].…”
