Abstract

The gate turn-off (GTO) thyristor has the highest voltage and current rating among the semiconductor power switches used extensively today. The insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is used to improve switching performance of a GTO in a cascode switch. This paper documents the switching performance of the different power semiconductor devices used in an IGBT-gated GTO-cascode switch. The cascode switch was tested and simulated using SPICE. Experimental waveforms are presented and show good agreement with simulation results.
级联码开关中半导体器件的开关性能
在目前广泛使用的半导体功率开关中,栅极关断(GTO)晶闸管具有最高的额定电压和电流。在级联码开关中,采用绝缘栅双极晶体管(IGBT)来提高GTO的开关性能。本文研究了用于igbt门控gto级联码开关的不同功率半导体器件的开关性能。利用SPICE对级联开关进行了测试和仿真。实验波形与仿真结果吻合较好。
