Job Description

As wide-gap power semiconductors SiC MOSFETs gain prominence in power electronics due to their high efficiency, superior thermal performance, and ability to handle higher voltages and frequencies, there is a compelling need for advanced gate driving techniques that enhance their operational stability and efficiency.

This project focuses on implementing and validating closed-loop gate driving concept for SiC MOSFETs in half-bridge configurations. The objective is to create an intelligent system that detect the short circuit and dynamically adjusts dead time based on real-time feedback, which can be integrated seamlessly into the gate driver IC. This innovative approach aims to optimize performance, improve the reliability, minimize dead-time losses and reduce electromagnetic interference.

• During your internship, you will write a state of the art review.
• Your tasks will also include circuit simulation and hardware implementation.
• Finally, you will be responsible for FPGA programming and result analysis.

Qualifications

• Education: Master studies in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Information Engineering or comparable
• Experience and Knowledge: in electronics and electronic development, high proficiency in Matlab, Python, C++ or similar programming software, solid background in power electronics and FPGA prototyping is a plus
• Personality and Working Practice: you are a communicative and reliable person with good presentation skills
• Languages: business fluent in English

Additional Information

Start: according to prior agreement
Duration: 6 months
