For the longest time, I wanted resources on power electronics, books, app notes, tutorials...and then I found your channel. It's everything I could have asked for.

As always, wonderful, useful and very practical information.

Dear Professor Sam, at time stamp 35:50, should we use the rising time or switching cycle time to do the sizing of gate driver power supply? If using the rising time, the current request will be as high as 6A, then the power supply power for single switch is 90W(15V), which seems too high. If using switching frequency time, which component provide the rush current then?

This is a great video! So much usefull insights to get from this!

[phychemnerd]

Thanks a lot! This will certainly help me make some key design decisions.

Thank You for amazing power electronics presentations!!! I know Im saying it over and over again but this is great stuff! You are the best "youtuber" :) Im just afraid and concerned that such an important content is available only on single third party website (YT). Were You considering placing all of these videos for example on your university webpage to have somehow secondary source? I have the feeling like You have written the most intuitive, comprehensive and complex book for power ee, but only single printout can be borrowed from Central World Library Corporation... maybe Im just paranoid.?

Dear Professor, thanks very much for explaining SiC devices in such a practical way.

Could you please also comment on the difference between SiC and Si in terms of ringing? We observe longer and larger ringing with SiC MOSFET and diode than Si. What could be the cause for it ? We think it might be output capacitance of SiC is a lot larger. Please kindly comment on this. Thanks again.

Always nice lecture. I really appreciate.

Thank you for the great lecture, professor.

Why kelvin source technique is not implemented in Si MOSFETs?

[dongolahmed]

Hello professor, I really appreciate your effort to make such informative lectures.

I also have a question ... what is the effect of low transcoductance of the SiC Mosfets when they are used to drive inductive loads (i.e. motors, inductive heaters, ... etc.)?

maybe sic prices are hold artificially, as not to take over existing silicon business?
