Igbt Zvs Driver Here

If you have ever built a flyback driver or a solid state Tesla coil (SSTC) , you have probably wrestled with MOSFETs.

Without zeners, the resonant tank can swing the gate voltage to 30V+. That will puncture the gate oxide instantly. Use 15V bidirectional (back-to-back) zeners. The Schematic (The Classic IGBT ZVS) Here is the proven recipe for a 200W+ IGBT ZVS driver: If you have ever built a flyback driver

If you are tired of replacing MOSFETs every time you sneeze near your flyback, the IGBT ZVS driver is your solution. It is slower than MOSFETs (so don't use it for MHz range), but for 20kHz-100kHz high-voltage work, it is bulletproof. If you are not comfortable working with lethal
