Abstract:
A cascaded synchronous bootstrap supply circuit with reduced voltage drop between the cascaded bootstrap capacitors by replacing bootstrap diodes with gallium nitride (GaN) transistors. GaN transistors have a much lower forward voltage drop than diodes, thus providing a cascaded gate driver bootstrap supply circuit with a reduced drop in bootstrap capacitor voltage, which is particularly important as the number of levels increases.

Claim (Index 10):
The cascaded synchronous bootstrap gate driver circuit of  claim 1 , wherein each drive control loop further comprises a Zener diode in parallel with a respective bootstrap capacitor.
