"textContent": "An electrified vehicle propulsion system uses current feedback to modify gate drive signals to suppress voltage spikes and increase switching efficiency. A DC link having a link capacitor and a link inductance is connected to first and second converters. A first converter bridge has a first phase leg with first upper and lower switching devices, each switching device having a respective gate loop. A second converter bridge has a second phase leg with second upper and lower switching devices, each switching device having a respective gate loop. A plurality of gate drivers provide gate drive signals to respective gate loops for turning the respective switching devices on and off. A plurality of gate coils are provided, wherein each gate coil is connected in series between a respective gate driver and a respective gate loop. Each gate coil is respectively inductively coupled to the link inductance.",
