| Abstract |
Various types of bidirectional switches are examined simulatively and experimentally with regard to
their commutation properties within a matrix converter arrangement. A newly developed IGBT with
reverse blocking capability by means of which it is possible to set up bidirectional switches in an
efficient way is dealt with in a more detailed way. Statements are made on the electric stress of the
bidirectional switches within the commutation circuit and the losses arising. With the aid of the results
obtained, the suitability of the respective bidirectional switches with regard to their application in the
matrix converter is discussed. Finally, some ideas concerning the further improvement of the
characteristics and properties of the bidirectional switches are touched upon. |
