| Abstract |
The paper presents an original methodology well suited for time saving electrothermal simulation of fast switching hybrid or integrated power circuits. The software developed is based on an explicit coupling process involving a fast thermal simulator and a general purpose electrical simulator. It allows for prediction of the electrothermal induced power dissipation drift in the active
areas of the components. The methodology includes thermal coupling effects between adjacent components and has been applied to the study of hard switching circuits working under variable operating conditions. |
