Abstract
This paper describes some of the design considerations and tradeoffs that are involved in developing the power electronics for an electric vehicle propulsion inverter. A review of topology, voltage, current and switching frequency requirements is presented. Guidelines for the design of: gate drivers, current loops, snubbers, auxiliary power supplies and protection circuits are given. Finally, loss calculations and thermal design methods are suggested.ETX
