Abstract
A new kind of power-MOSFET driver has appeared: lossless or resonant drivers. Their main goals are the reduction of power consumption and protections against overvoltage in the gate terminal. In this paper, a new lossless driver is presented; its operation is based on the use of DC/DC converters to supply and to recover driving energy with a few components and easy design
