Abstract

Semiconductor materials as Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) enabling development of very fast switching and low loss power devices. The fast switching transients demanding high bandwidth measurement capability, while not influencing the switching behaviour. In this paper a current measurement method, using a low inductive SMD shunt with a frequency compensation network, is introduced.
