Book Description
This book presents physics-based models of bipolar power semiconductor devices and their implementation in MATLAB and Simulink. The devices are subdivided into different regions, and the operation in each region, along with the interactions at the interfaces which are analyzed using basic semiconductor physics equations that govern their behavior. The Fourier series solution is used to solve the ambipolar diffusion equation in the lightly doped drift region of the devices. In addition to the external electrical characteristics, internal physical and electrical information, such as the junction voltages and the carrier distribution in different regions of the device, can be obtained using the models.

Transient Electro-Thermal Modeling on Power Semiconductor Devices

Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031025067
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 68
Book Description
This book presents physics-based electro-thermal models of bipolar power semiconductor devices including their packages, and describes their implementation in MATLAB and Simulink. It is a continuation of our first book Modeling of Bipolar Power Semiconductor Devices. The device electrical models are developed by subdividing the devices into different regions and the operations in each region, along with the interactions at the interfaces, are analyzed using the basic semiconductor physics equations that govern device behavior. The Fourier series solution is used to solve the ambipolar diffusion equation in the lightly doped drift region of the devices. In addition to the external electrical characteristics, internal physical and electrical information, such as junction voltages and carrier distribution in different regions of the device, can be obtained using the models. The instantaneous dissipated power, calculated using the electrical device models, serves as input to the thermal model (RC network with constant and nonconstant thermal resistance and thermal heat capacity, or Fourier thermal model) of the entire module or package, which computes the junction temperature of the device. Once an updated junction temperature is calculated, the temperature-dependent semiconductor material parameters are re-calculated and used with the device electrical model in the next time-step of the simulation. The physics-based electro-thermal models can be used for optimizing device and package design and also for validating extracted parameters of the devices. The thermal model can be used alone for monitoring the junction temperature of a power semiconductor device, and the resulting simulation results used as an indicator of the health and reliability of the semiconductor power device.

Power Semiconductor Devices and Circuits

Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
This symposium was the sCientific-technical event of the centennial celebration of the Asea Brown Boveri Switzerland. The purpose was to assess the present state of the art as well as shaping the basis for future progress in the area of power devices and related power circuits. The merger of Brown Boveri (BBC) with Asea to Asea Brown Boveri (ABB) three years ago gave new stimulus and enriched the technical substance of the symposium. By 1991, 100 years after the formation of BBC in Switzerland as a single company, this organization has been decentralized, forming 35 independent ABB companies. One of them - ABB Semiconductors Ltd. - directly deals with the power semiconductor business. These significant changes reflect the changes in the market place: increased competition and higher customer expectations have to be fulfilled. In line with the core business activities of ABB and with the concept of sustainable development, it is natural for ABB to be active in the area of power devices and circuits. Increased awareness towards energy conservation is one of the main drives for these activities. User friendliness is another drive: integration of intelligent functions, e.g. protection and/or increased direct computer interfacing of the power circuits. Therefore, also the R&D activities related to the subject of thIs symposium will in the future be characterized by an even stronger coupling with the market needs. For the members of the R&D Laboratories this means improved customer partnership beyond operational excellence.

Digital Control in Power Electronics
Author: Simone Buso
Publisher: Morgan & Claypool Publishers
ISBN: 1627057544
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
This book presents the reader, whether an electrical engineering student in power electronics or a design engineer, a selection of power converter control problems and their basic digital solutions, based on the most widespread digital control techniques. The presentation is primarily focused on different applications of the same power converter topology, the half-bridge voltage source inverter, considered both in its single- and three-phase implementation. This is chosen as the test case because, besides being simple and well known, it allows the discussion of a significant spectrum of the most frequently encountered digital control applications in power electronics, from digital pulse width modulation (DPWM) and space vector modulation (SVM), to inverter output current and voltage control, ending with the relatively more complex VSI applications related to the so called smart-grid scenario. This book aims to serve two purposes: (1) to give a basic, introductory knowledge of the digital control techniques applied to power converters; and (2) to raise the interest for discrete time control theory, stimulating new developments in its application to switching power converters.

Power Electronics for Photovoltaic Power Systems
Author: Mahinda Vilathgamuwa
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031025008
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 129
Book Description
The world energy demand has been increasing in a rapid manner with the increase of population and rising standard of living. The world population has nearly doubled in the last 40 years from 3.7 billion people to the present 7 billion people. It is anticipated that world population will grow towards 8 billion around 2030. Furthermore, the conventional fossil fuel supplies become unsustainable as the energy demand in emerging big economies such as China and India would rise tremendously where the China will increase its energy demand by 75% and India by 100% in the next 25 years. With dwindling natural resources, many countries throughout the world have increasingly invested in renewable resources such as photovoltaics (PV) and wind. The world has seen immense growth in global photovoltaic power generation over the last few decades. For example, in Australia, renewable resources represented nearly 15% of total power generation in 2013. Among renewable resources, solar and wind account for 38% of generation. In near future, energy in the domestic and industrial sector will become ""ubiquitous"" where consumers would have multiple sources to get their energy. Another such prediction is that co-location of solar and electrical storage will see a rapid growth in global domestic and industrial sectors; conventional power companies, which dominate the electricity market, will face increasing challenges in maintaining their incumbent business models. The efficiency, reliability and cost-effectiveness of the power converters used to interface PV panels to the mains grid and other types of off-grid loads are of major concern in the process of system design. This book describes state-of-the-art power electronic converter topologies used in various PV power conversion schemes. This book aims to provide a reader with a wide variety of topologies applied in different circumstances so that the reader would be able to make an educated choice for a given application.
