Working on a variable frequency drive and have run into a problem sourcing parts.
Basic design is 120V AC -> PFC boost circuit to 400V -> h-bridge -> ACIM.
The problem I'm having is finding high side drivers for NFETS that can handle the 400V from the PFC. I found one so far that is 400V maximum and it's really slow, meant for SSR type applications, not high speed switching. (https://www.electro-tech-online.com/custompdfs/2010/02/HT0440.pdf)
Is the only way to handle this to use PFETs instead? Or am I just missing something?
