Title	Description
AN-302 - Qspeed Reverse Voltage Sharing of Series Rectifiers	Description Reverse Voltage Sharing of Series Rectifiers
AN-301 - Qspeed Reverse Recovery Charge, Current and Time	Description Reverse Recovery Charge, Current and Time
AN-300 - Qspeed High Temperature Reverse Bias (HTRB) Reliability Testing	Description Qspeed High Temperature Reverse Bias (HTRB) Reliability Testing
AN-1301: Do’s and Don’ts with SCALE™-2 Gate Drivers	Description This Application Note highlights important points that must be considered when using SCALE™-2 driver cores as well as plug-and-play drivers. It complements Application Note AN-1101 /1/.
AN-0902 Avoiding ESD with CONCEPT drivers	Description This Application Note describes the minimum requirements for preventing ESD during handling and assembly of all CONCEPT gate driver devices. CONCEPT products are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD), as are MOSFETs and IGBT modules.
AN-1101 Application with SCALE-2 Gate Driver Cores	Description This application note will highlight important design rules and help to speed up the development time by showing detailed examples about how to design successfully IGBT drivers for industrial and traction applications. Considered SCALE-2 driver cores are: 2SC0108T, 2SC0435T, 2SC0650P and 1SC2060P.
AN-1001 IGBT and Mosfet Drivers Correctly Calculated	Description This application note describes the calculation of the gate drive performance figures required for a given application. The values as derived from this application note serve as a base for selecting the most appropriate driver.
AN-0904 Direct Paralleling of SCALE-2 Gate Driver Cores	Description Parallel-connected IGBTs are conventionally driven by a common driver, with individual gate and emitter resistors for each IGBT. An alternative approach to driving parallel-connected IGBT modules is to use an individual driver for each module.
AN-0901 Methodology for Controlling of CONCEPT Drivers	Description This application note describes the methodology for controlling multi-level converter topologies with SCALE-2 IGBT drivers in case of a fault. Multi-level converters use series-connected IGBTs to increase both the amplitude and switching frequency of the converter output voltage.
AN-0801 Mechanical Handling of CONCEPT Drivers	Description This application note describes the correct mechanical handling of CONCEPT drivers. It particularly points out that no excessive mechanical force should be applied to transformers.
