Abstract |
This paper will consider the use of IGBTs in solid state circuit breakers (SSCB). An optimisationprocess which produces a better structure of IGBT for use in this application is also presented.Advanced 2D device physical simulations show that the use of a charge storage structures is effectivein maintaining the trade-off between important characteristics for SSCB. The optimised structureprovides an IGBT with a better on-state performance, a maintained forward blocking capability, and asatisfactory switching performance. |
