摘要： Due to the coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch between various materials, the bond wire of insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) module is prone to heel-cracking or lift-off failure under power cycling, which will affect the performance of the module. In this article, an electro-thermal-mechanical multiphysics coupling model was constructed for IGBT module, and the accuracy of the model was validated by steady-state conduction experiment. Based on the simulation model, the characteristics of IGBT module were further simulated under the normal state conduction operation, and the results showed that the stress of the middle bond position on a single bond wire is higher. Then, the research on the influence of heel-cracking and lift-off failure of the bond wire was carried out. The simulation results showed that the heel-cracking failure of the bond wire will cause obvious effect, in which the increase stress can be as high as 77.4 MPa. When the bond wires are detached one by one until five bond wires were lifted off, the temperature in the remaining bond wires increases by 48.7 C-degrees, which has a significant impact on the module. The research in this article can provide the basis for improving the reliability of IGBT module and the optimization of module package design.

摘要： IGBT modules are widely used in various fields of power electronics, and their reliability is important for power systems. Multi-chips parallel IGBT modules face more challenges in condition monitoring and health assessment due to their complex spatial structure, uneven current distribution, and uneven temperature distribution, resulting in uneven aging. Focusing on this problem, based on the multi-physics field finite element simulation technology, the degradation law of the electrothermal and magnetic characteristic parameters during the aging failure process of the multi-chips parallel IGBT module is studied, and the magnetic flux density is used as the aging status monitoring parameter. A health status evaluation model is established for the bonding wire lift-off and solder layer aging failure modes, which is used to realize multi-chips parallel IGBT module failure type identification and quantitatively evaluate for the health status and aging chip positioning. Then, the accuracy of the health assessment model is verified by experiments, and the condition monitoring method does not require changing or touching the internal circuits of the modules. Finally, an aging failure mode based on the change of the sum of the magnetic flux density is proposed to realize the judgment of the aging failure mode and the quantitative evaluation of the health status.

摘要： Silicon carbide (SiC) power devices are heading towards high power and high voltage, where 4H-SiC bipolar devices play a key role due to low on -resistance and ultra -high blocking voltage. However, stacking faults (SFs) can result in forward voltage drifts and increased reverse leakage currents in bipolar devices. Moreover, SFs expand easily from basal plane dislocation (BPD) under current stress, severely damaging the device reliability. In this review, the properties and characterization methods of SFs are presented. The formation and expansion mechanisms of SFs and the approaches to suppress SFs expansion are addressed. In particular, the challenge of SFs suppression in insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) is also discussed. Finally, this review proposes some directions for futher SFs research, which could provide insights into controlling SFs in 4H-SiC epilayers and IGBTs.

关键词： Si-IGBT   Radiation effect   Energy deposition  

摘要： Silicon-insulated gate bipolar transistors (Si-IGBTs) are widely used for power control. In this study, we measured the energy deposited inside a commercial device with neutrons irradiation from 252Cf. We irradiated the device from the sealing and heat sink sides to evaluate the directional characteristics. A radiation simulation analysis was performed to understand the measurement results. The experiment and simulation showed that energy deposition in the device occurs through elastic scattering of neutrons and nuclear reactions. In particular, protons were generated by elastic scattering in the sealing material when the device was irradiated from the sealing side. Thus, the effect of neutrons on commercial Si-IGBTs is due to not only reactions inside the device but also secondary particles from the sealing material. When irradiated with high-energy neutrons, the knocked-out protons from sealing possibly cause single-event burnout (SEB). Therefore, the probability of SEB may depend on the direction of neutron incidence.

摘要： This paper envisages studying the features of a conventional inductive ignition system along with its MOSFET and IGBT-based transistorized modifications. The influence of mechanical contact breaker dynamics and ignition coil characteristics on the current and voltage waveforms of the primary and secondary circuits of these studied ignition systems are mathematically and experimentally exposed. The investigation is considered necessary prior to attempting subsequent modeling and diagnostics procedures on the current-voltage performance characteristics of conventional and transistorized ignition systems. The work has demanded the development of an experimental setup based on a basic modifiable ignition system mockup and an instrumentation system to measure and analyze the voltage-current parameters of inductive ignition systems. The paper describes the design details of such instrumentation system, presents mechanical and electrical models for contact breaker and ignition circuits, then simulated to obtain base free-run response waveforms and electrical continuity behavior of the contact. A test of frequency response of the ignition coil provided additional input to the model. An experimental test of continuity of the contact, in agreement with its model, shed light on the actual excitation of the primary coil. The work comments on a sample of the registered current and voltage waveforms in primary and secondary coil windings of the ignition system at atmospheric conditions. Comparisons of waveforms and energy for mechanical contact, MOSFET and IGBT switches are made to establish them as a reference for future tests.

关键词： Current sharing among IGBT cells   dynamic avalanche   press-pack insulated gate bipolar transistor (PP IGBT) chip   pressure distribution  

摘要： Within a press-pack insulated gate bipolar transistor (PP IGBT) submodule, the components are packaged by external clamping force. This external clamping force significantly affects the chip's dynamic avalanche and further degrades its turn-off capability, which needs to be investigated. In this article, it is found for the first time that the pressure distribution is the key factor for the IGBT chip's dynamic avalanche during a single turn-off period. Simulation results indicate that the maximum pressure difference on the chip surface rises by 1.5 times when the clamping force increases from 1 to 2.5 kN. During turn-off, that pressure distribution leads to a 21.21% increase in the maximum current density inside the single chip, which strengthens the dynamic avalanche. To verify this mechanism, the turn-off waveforms of a single chip under different forces are then measured and compared in detail. Meanwhile, these conclusions regarding the pressure distribution effect are applicable to the single chip inside the multichip device in practical applications. Moreover, suggestions for the packaging design and practical operation are put forward to improve the PP IGBT device's turn-off capability effectively.

摘要： Motor drives play a crucial role in performing numerous daily tasks of human life. The gate driver circuit, an essential part of motor drives, serves as the interface between the switching devices, such as the insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), and the motor-drive controller. The general approach to operating the IGBT involves using a bipolar power supply, where a sufficient negative voltage is applied to the gate-to-emitter terminals of the IGBT during turn-off. Nevertheless, the recent trend leans towards applying zero volts between the gate and emitter terminals when the device is turned off. This method is known as "unipolar supply" for gate drivers, typically applicable for low-power motor drives with a nominal current of less than 100 A. This absence of a negative voltage supply reduces the cost of power supplies and printed circuit board (PCB) footprint. Despite these advantages, it increases the risk of parasitic turn-on, which raises the gate-emitter voltage of the complementary IGBT in a half-bridge configuration. If it exceeds the threshold voltage of the IGBT, it may cause a shoot-through across the DC-link of a motor drive. This thesis discusses several techniques to prevent such parasitic turn-on events, and these are tested on a double pulse test setup. Specific characteristics of IGBT modules that favour unipolar supply gate drivers are identified, relating to their construction. A simulation model is developed in LTSpice, enabling the observation of interferences caused by switching transients. As developing accurate simulation models that comply with all natural phenomena in semiconductors is challenging, a real-world test setup is necessary to obtain accurate results. Due to the rapid transient nature of switching events, noises arise from the circuit. Therefore, the necessary considerations for building such a test setup are stated to correctly identify and capture the quantities of interest (currents and voltages). The analysis prim

摘要： This paper proposes a method based on transfer function to monitor the solder layer void damage in IGBT modules. Firstly, the thermal resistance of each layer structure of IGBT module and the Cauer model is analyzed. Secondly, the process of obtaining the parameters of Cauer model by transfer function is analyzed. Finally, the thermal resistance of the IGBT module under different void fractions of the solder layer is measured by experiments, which obtains the relationship between the thermal resistance difference and the void fractions. In addition, this method is compared with the monitoring method by IEC standard, which verifies the accuracy and feasibility of this method.
