Abstract |
An intelligent power module (IPM) based on bipolar elements is presented. It is a test module with a
thyristor AC follow-up switch for group control of AC load. In the IPM, the control and power supply
as well as the temperature monitoring and overtemperature protection of semiconductor devices have
been integrated. The temperature is measured directly inside the thyristor during its reverse bias, using
the forward bias gate-cathode junction as the thermosensor. Operating examination of the test modules
has been carried out showns high efficiency of the temperature protection applied to the device. The
paper includes the description of the module and the results of the tests. |
