Power tube switching delay and turn-on voltage drop

The previous analysis only considers the influence of the artificially added dead time on the output voltage of the bridge arm and the incoming current of the bridge arm to prevent the bridge arm from passing through. However, the turn-on and turn-off of actual power devices is not instantaneous, and there is a turn-on voltage […]
