초록

In this paper, recent researches on new and renewable energy have been conducted due to problems such as energy exhaustion and environmental pollution, and new researches on high efficiency and high speed switching are needed. Therefore, we compared the efficiency by using high speed switching devices instead of IGBT which can't be used in high speed switching. The experiment was performed theoretically by applying the same parameters of the high speed switching devices which are the Cool MOS of Infineon Co., SiC C3M of Cree, and GaN FET device of Transform, by implementing the DC-DC boost converter and measuring the actual efficiency for output power and frequency. As a result, the GaN FET showed good efficiency at all switching frequency and output power.
