Thermal Impact on the Power Device Behaviour: Application on the IGBT

The functional limits of an IGBT are defined by an essential parameter: the maximum junction temperature permitted. The technical specifications of each IGBT type provide the limit values of the functional temperature for example, from -55 C to 150 C. The electrical energy dissipated by the IGBT for...
