Mr. Brendan O'Sullivan BE Tyndall National institute
Current Research: Investigation & design of isolated smart gate driver technologies. The gate drivers are being designed for implementation on 180nm SOI and are appropriate for Wide Band Gap (WBG) devices such as Gallium Nitride (GaN) High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMT’s) to achieve high frequency & high efficiency operation. Target applications include high step-down DC-DC Point of load converters operating directly from higher voltage systems, such as 48V automotive.
Research Topics include Smart Gate Driver Design, GaN HEMT Modelling, Closed Loop Control Systems and Isolated Converter Systems
