1 Power Devices Prof. Dr. Ing. Hans Georg Herzog Prof. Dr. Ing. Ralph Kennel Technische Universität München Arcisstraße München Germany 1
2 Power Devices in power electronics active operation of power semiconductor devices is avoided either the voltage at the device is 0 or the current in the device is 0 unfortunately power semiconductor devices are no ideal switches! what requirements have to be postulated? switch off switching event switch on low blocking current low switching losses low voltage drop bidirectional blocking short switching time bidirectional conduction high blocking voltage free control of time of switching high current capability high du/dt no snubber circuits high di/dt 2
3 Losses in Real Power Semiconductor Devices switch-on losses conduction losses switch-off losses 3
4 Hard Switching Devices high stress on semiconductor wide SOA (safe operation area) necessary low switching frequency problematic with respect to high power 4
5 Soft Switching Devices low stress on semiconductor high switch-off current possible high switching frequency simple gate driving circuits additional power components necessary 5
6 IGBT Turn-Off with Snubber hard switching with snubber Gate voltage Gate voltage Collector voltage Collector current Collector voltage E off = 226µJ E off = 98µJ Collector current 400V, 20A, 125 C, R G = 9.1Ω current pops up but losses are still greatly reduced in the semiconductor the overall losses, however, increase 6

12 Thyristor Characteristic 12
13 Triac 13
14 / GTO standard thyristor technology single wafer until 150 mm low conduction losses high current capability high switching losses high power for driver circuit 14
15 GTO IGCT both are controllable thyristors however, according to different philosophies GTO earlier in the market switch-off concept : by deviating a part of the load current (ca. 30 %) via the gate filigrane structure on the chip IGCT (too) late in the market switch-off concept : by deviating the full load current via the gate very complex driver circuits 15

32 On-State Voltage Comparison Same Die Size On-State Voltage vs. Current APT6038BLL: I D = 17A APT30GP60B: I C2 = 49A APT6038BLL (25 C) APT6038BLL (125 C) APT30GP60B (25 or 125 C) Voltage (V) Current (A) MOSFET 125 C MOSFET 25 C IGBT IGBT has lower on-voltage above about 4 Amps. MOSFET conduction loss is sensitive to temperature, the IGBT is not. TECHNOLOGY TO THE NEXT POWER 32
33 Conduction Loss Comparison Same Die Size Conduction Loss vs. Current (125 C) APT6038BLL APT30GP60B Power (W) MOSFET IGBT Current (A) IGBT has much lower conduction loss above about 4 Amps. IGBT has much better overload capability. TECHNOLOGY TO THE NEXT POWER 33

36 Advantage of IGBTs Lower cost much smaller die size for same power. Excellent overload capability linear conduction loss versus current, very insensitive to temperature. Simple gate drive can replace MOSFETs positive only gate drive Highest speed IGBTs turn-on is the same as a MOSFET, turn-off is only slightly longer. Suitable for soft and hard switching zero voltage or reduced voltage turn-off not as good as MOSFETs. TECHNOLOGY TO THE NEXT POWER 36
