The dynamic model verification is carried out using PSpice simulations and experimental measurements of the...

This paper presents a model reduction approach for constructing lumped RC thermal networks of IGBTmodules of inverters for which heat and subsequent temperature increases vary with time on different scales ranging from nanosecond to second. It was observed that the time-dependent heat and temperature profiles of transistors and diodes of IGBT-modules of inverters oscillate at two frequencies, o...

A novel insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) entitled NPN aided fast switching IGBT (NFS-IGBT) with a P-buffer layer is presented, which enhances the switching speed greatly. Compared with the conventional IGBT, double sided NPN structure is incorporated into the anode to facilitate the turn-off process. The proposed structure is verified by two-dimensional mixed device-circuit simulation, ...
