In this white paper we continue our exploration of optimization issues [1] and look at the impact of dead-time on system efficiency for
eGaN® FETs and MOSFETs.

DEAD-TIME RELATED LOSSES

Previously published articles [2, 3] showed that eGaN FETs behave similarly to silicon devices and can be evaluated using the same performance metrics. Although eGaN
FETs perform significantly better by most metrics, the eGaN FET ‘body-diode’ forward voltage is higher than its MOSFET counterpart and can be a significant loss compo-
nent during dead-time. Body diode forward conduction losses alone do not make up all dead-time dependent losses. Diode reverse-recovery and output capacitance
losses are also important. In this white paper the importance of dead-time management and the requirements to minimize all dead-time losses are discussed.

To start, consider the reverse transfer characteristics for both MOSFETs and eGaN FETs shown in Figure 1. This Figure shows a 1.5 V increase in forward voltage drop of
the eGaN FET ‘body diode’ compared to a Si MOSFET at 25°C, as temperature increases the voltage difference increases to almost 2 V. What isn’t shown is that, since the
eGaN FET ‘diode’ is just the channel conducting in reverse and a majority carrier operation; this results in no diode reverse-recovery charge in eGaN FETs. Body diode
forward conduction and reverse recovery losses are not the only dead-time related losses; there are output capacitance losses and additional switching losses when
the self-commutation time is longer than the allotted dead-time. This will be discussed in more detail later in this paper.

EFFECTIVE DEAD-TIME
For the analysis presented, effective dead-time will be used, which is different from the dead-time generated between controller gating signals. The effective dead-time
is defined from when one device reaches turn-off threshold (VTH) voltage on the gate to when the other device, which is turning on, reaches its threshold voltage. For
a constant controller dead-time, the effective dead-time is dependent on variations in device threshold voltage, gate resistance, and gate capacitance. The resultant
effective dead-time is also dependent on device operating voltage and the pulse-width variation in the gate drive circuit.

 WHITE PAPER: WP012 Dead-Time Optimization for Maximum Efficiency
Given the current lack of capability for such tight tolerances for most MOSFET driver and MOSFET combinations, a common alternative solution to having such a small
dead-time range, is to minimize dead-time losses over a more realistic range through the addition of a parallel Schottky diode. In silicon, this is only effective when the
Schottky diode is monolithically integrated into the MOSFET, as the small voltage drop difference between the body diode and Schottky diode together with the large
loop inductance between them would mean a too long commutation time to be practical [10]. Furthermore, partial commutation to the Schottky diode would mean
that the MOSFET body diode would still have to recover at turn-off with the additional associated recovery losses. Alternatively lengthening the diode conduction
time to allow complete commutation will incur additional diode conduction losses instead. Since neither solution is workable, only a monolithic integrated Schottky
diode will practically reduce dead-time losses.

For eGaN FETs, the case is very different.

• Firstly, there is no body diode reverse recovery, so even with partial current commutation from the body diode to the Schottky diode it would still reduce overall
dead-time losses.

• Secondly, the much higher body diode forward drop is actually beneficial for the addition of a Schottky diode here as it increases the current commutation speed
by generating a larger voltage differential between the two diodes [11].

• Lastly, the low parasitic inductance of the eGaN FET’s land grid array (LGA) package makes the addition of an external Schottky diode possible by significantly
reducing the commutation loop inductance. Care should be taken to minimize the Schottky diode package inductance and pcb loop also to avoid negating this
advantage. This is best done by placing the Schottky diode next to the eGaN FET on the same side of the board and choosing a low inductance package Schottky
[12, 13]. The improved thermal package parts with exposed tab are good as they remove one or both wire-bond connections. A suggested layout is shown in
Figure 6.

Following the same loss calculation process as before, the impact of adding a 3 A Schottky diode to the eGaN FET in a 12 V application can be seen in Figure 7 (right)
compared to the standard eGaN FET with no Schottky diode (left). From this, the following conclusions can be drawn:

1) The addition of a Schottky diode increases output capacitance losses and lengthens self commutation time slightly. Choosing the right size of Schottky diode is
important to balance the capacitive loss increase with reduced diode conduction losses.

2) The diode conduction losses are decreased to about 40% for a 3 A Schottky diode and are in direct relation to the decrease in the forward diode conduction drop.
Optimal scaling of the Schottky diode can improve this for a selected load range.

3) The practical dead-time range (for <0.2 μJ losses) is increased almost four times and is almost twice than that of the equivalent MOSFET diode without integrated
Schottky diode in Figure 5.

EXPERIMENTAL VERIFICATION
To determine if an external Schottky can actually be used as predicted, two equivalent buck converter boards were built using 40 V eGaN FETs and equivalent 40 V
silicon MOSFETs, both converters were operated at 1 MHz, 12 VIN and 1.2 VOUT. Effective dead-time at both edges were set equal and the load was swept up to 20 A.
The tests were then repeated with a small 1 A external Schottky diode added. The measured experimental results are shown in Figure 8. For optimum effective dead-
time, the dead-time is adjusted to try and eliminate body diode conduction, while for 5 ns and 10 ns dead-time, the gate timing is adjusted for a constant effective
dead-time as per Figure 2.

From Figure 8, the following results can be seen:

SUMMARY
In this paper the effect of dead-time losses in eGaN FET based converters relative to MOSFET based converters were investigated. From this analysis, the following
conclusions can be drawn:
1) Regardless of voltage, for similar dead-time losses, the effective dead-time for eGaN FETs needs to be about half that of the equivalent MOSFET circuit; requiring a
2x reduction in dead-time values and tolerances for comparable losses.
2) At higher voltages, the diode related dead-time losses are small in comparison to both output capacitance losses and reverse recovery losses; and the optimum
dead-time requirements can realistically be achieved with current silicon technology.
3) As bus voltage decreases, the diode conduction losses become more significant and the required optimum dead-time values for both MOSFETS and eGaN FETs
become difficult to generate.
4) For MOSFETs, the required increase in body diode conduction loss due to the inability to realize the small optimum dead-time values is significantly reduced
through the addition of a Schottky diode, but this Schottky diode HAS to be monolithically integrated with the MOSFET to be effective.
5) For eGaN FETs, the use of an external Schottky diode is viable and can typically reduce body diode losses by 50% and as much as 70% if size optimized.
