To generate the isolated bias supplies for each of the power cards, the SN6501 transformer driver is used to drive transformers suited for the power rails required to drive the specific power switching devices used in each type of board As each of the boards have two switching devices, there are two isolated bias power supplies per board.
For the TI GaN device LMG3410R050, a 12-V output is needed. This is generated using the SN6501 transformer driver along with Würth Elektronik 750313638 transformer in a voltage doubler configuration as shown in Figure 2-13.
For the slow switching Si power board, a +12-V, –5-V drive is used to drive the FCH040N65S3 Si MOSFET. The SN6501 transformer driver along with Würth Elektronik 750342879 transformer in a push-pull configuration is used to generate a 17-V supply. A TL431-based level-shifting circuit converts this to +12-V, –5-V supply. The circuit is shown in Figure 2-14.
