Overview of Snubber Circuits for Hard-Switched Converters
Function: Protect semiconductor devices by:
Types of Snubber Circuits
• Limiting device voltages during turn-off transients
• Limiting device currents during turn-on transients
• Limiting the rate-of-rise (di/dt) of currents through
the semiconductor device at device turn-on
• Limiting the rate-of-rise (dv/dt) of voltages across
the semiconductor device at device turn-off
• Shaping the switching trajectory of the device as it
turns on/off

1. Unpolarized series R-C snubbers
• Used to protect diodes and thyristors
2. Polarized R-C snubbers
• Used as turn-off snubbers to shape the turn-on
switching trajectory of controlled switches.
• Used as overvoltage snubbers to clamp voltages
applied to controlled switches to safe values.
• Limit dv/dt during device turn-off
3. Polarized L-R snubbers
• Used as turn-on snubbers to shape the turn-off
switching trajectory of controlled switches.
• Limit di/dt during device turn-on

• Snubber reduces Vsw at switch
turn-on due drop across

• Will limit rate-of-rise of switch
current if Ls is sufficiently
large.
