Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) issues have become one of the most difficult challenges in power converter designs. With the invention of wide bandgap (WBG) power semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) power MOSFETs, the power converter designs are provided with the potential to be significantly more power dense than older generation converters using silicone IGBTs. However, the majority of spectral contents of the switching waveforms are moved from the very-low-frequency (VLF, 3 kHz to 30 kHz) range to low-frequency and up to the very-high-frequency (VHF, 30 MHz to 300 MHz) range. Moreover, due to the design traits …
