Abstract

Precise current sensing is essential for several power electronics' protection, control, and reliability mechanisms. Even so, WBG power converters will likely struggle to develop a single current-sensing scheme to measure various types of currents due to the limited space and size of these devices, the required high sensing speed, and the high electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions they cause. Analysis of existing current sensors was conducted in such terms with the objective of understanding the challenges associated with their integration into WBG power converters. Since each of these requirements has different design tradeoffs, it is challenging to consider one specific method of current sensing to be perfect for all situations; thus, the possibility of developing novel methods to improve the performance of these single-scheme current sensors is further explored.
