Power Losses in an IGBT Module :
Power loss in an IGBT mainly consists of steady ¨C
state conduction loss and switching loss.
The switching loss in the IGBT is given by Esw= Eon + Eoff
whereas, in the Diode it is given by the reverse
recovery loss. All these switching energies can be
added together multiplied by the switching
frequency to give the total module switching
losses.
The conduction losses for the IGBT and free-
wheeling diode are the product of the current
flowing through the collector or anode and
saturation voltage (on state voltage) over the
conducting period. In contrast, the switching losses
happen as a result of energy loss during
the transition and switching frequency.
Power Losses in an IGBT Module :
? IGBTs works in two states and produce losses in
those states; conduction losses and switching
losses.
? Conduction losses mainly depend on the duty
cycle, load current and junction temperature,
whereas, switching losses depends on the load
current, dc link voltage, junction temperature
and switching frequency. If the switching
frequency is higher, then the losses will be higher.
Power losses for different stages give significant
amount of power loss in an IGBT module if driven
carefully.
? The total average power of the IGBT is the sum of
the conduction loss, turn on and turn off
losses as shown in Eqn.1
Pavg.IGBT = Pcond + Pon + Poff + Pthermal
