I. Introduction
Power electronic switches such as IGBTs and MOSFETs are voltage driven device which draw the gate current in accordance to charge the input capacitance [1]. Due to the limitation incurred by the microcontroller over the voltage and current requirement by the switching device, it demands an additional circuitry connected in series. These circuits are termed as gate drivers. Gate drivers serve as the intermediary between control circuitry and power switches, enabling precise and efficient control over the switching characteristics of these devices. They are responsible for providing the necessary voltage and current signals to turn the power switches on and off rapidly, allowing for precise control of power flow and facilitating the desired switching operation. With the emergence of wide bandgap semiconductor devices, such as SiC MOSFET, achieving lower switching loss and higher power density in converter has become possible due to their capability of operating at higher switching frequency [2]. The gate driver plays a decisive role in such high frequency operation. This also underlines the importance of the need for advanced gate drivers for driving these high-performance devices. Conventionally, voltage source gate drivers are utilized for driving power semiconductor switches. A general gate driver circuit is shown in Fig. 1.
