Abstract:
6.5-kV SiC IGBT with novel drift layer structure is developed to eliminate collector voltage steepening during turn-off and thus to suppress a ringing noise. The proposed IGBT has a depletion-controlled structure (DCS) of a two-step drift layer to suppress the increase of a depletion layer during the turn-off. We fabricated n-channel SiC IGBTs with DCS designed for a blocking voltage of 6.5 kV. Also, we applied our original backside-grinding-last (BG-last) process that enables low switching loss. The DCS device successfully reduced a riging of the gate voltage and had a turn-off loss of 17.6 m

Abstract This paper provides analysis of losses in the hysteresis-driven three-phase power converter with IGBTs and free-wheeling diodes. The converter under consideration is part of the self-excited induction generator (SEIG) vector control system. For the analysis, the SEIG vector control system is used in which the induction generator iron losses are taken into account. The power converter losses are determined by using a suitable loss estimation algorithm reported in literature. The chosen algorithm allows the power converter losses to be determined both by type (switching/conduction losse

This paper presents the design of a new bi-directional DC-DC converter topology, which solves the problem that electric vehicle could not run consistently both in time and distance. This DC-DC converter topology has three ports, each of which can transmit electric power to another port independently, By adopting the suggested method, the running time of the electric vehicle can be extended. Moreover, the topology uses phase shift control, indicating that the IGBT can be achieved by soft-switching technology. It enables us to reduces the current stress and switching loss considerably.
