The classical models of neural networks (NNs) are frequently used for such regression tasks due to their capacity to extract features from average datasets; however, they struggle with complex design parameters and broad responses. To accomplish this, a hybrid NN technique is developed, which combines convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for deep feature capture with long short-term memory (LSTM) networks and an attention mechanism for processing. This method makes efficient use of linear information in design dimensions while also consistently computing S-parameters. The FSS design employs a double square loop that resonates at two frequencies, resulting in a wideband response; by adding four stubs between the loops, it becomes an ultrawideband (UWB) response. The equivalent lumped circuit (ELC) model is applied for estimating capacitance (C) and inductance (L), which are then transformed to ABCD and S-parameters. The model obtained an <inline-formula> <tex-math>$r^{2}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> value of 99.3% and a mean squared error (mse) of <inline-formula> <tex-math>$1 times 10^{-3}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> after optimizing the design parameters in 124.25 s.

Comparative research demonstrates that the CNN-LSTM hybrid model surpasses traditional techniques, illustrating higher SE.","PeriodicalId":13085,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology","volume":"15 4","pages":"810-820"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143821814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article proposes a non-thermal interface material (TIM) air-cooled power module architecture, i.e., chip-on-heatsink, to enhance both thermal performance and structural reliability. The chip-on-heatsink packaging bonds conductive copper traces and an aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramic heatsink together without requiring TIM. This non-TIM packaging design streamlines the manufacturing process by eliminating certain steps, such as attaching the bottom copper layer on substrates and assembling heatsinks, since there are few layer stacks between chips and the heatsink. Two types of 1200 V, 36 A power modules are manufactured and experimentally compared. One utilizes the non-TIM structure integrated with <inline-formula> <tex-math>$50times 38times 24$ </tex-math></inline-formula> mm AlN ceramic heatsink, while the other follows the standard conventional packaging equipped with the same size 6063 Al Alloy heatsink. Tested under various air cooling and power loss conditions, the non-TIM power module consistently exhibits approximately a 2% reduction in junction-to-ambient thermal resistance compared to the traditional module, indicating the enhanced thermal performance of the non-TIM packaging. Furthermore, continuous performance testing confirms the suitability of the non-TIM power module packaging for operation at 650 V dc-link with 2 kW, making it a feasible choice for power converter applications. Moreover, an electro-thermal-mechanical finite element analysis (FEA) model and the digital image correlation (DIC) test are employed to evaluate the in-plane deformation. Results reveal that the maximum stress of the MOSFETs for the non-TIM packaging is significantly reduced by up to 40.2% along the defined path compared to the conventional structure, demonstrating the potential for better reliability with the proposed packaging.","PeriodicalId":13085,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology","volume":"15 3","pages":"512-524"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143667733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurately estimating the junction temperature of IGBT modules is crucial for enhancing their reliability. Currently, thermal network models stand as commonly used tools for estimating the junction temperature of IGBT modules. However, prevailing thermal models exhibit certain limitations in accurately predicting the junction temperature, particularly when considering the degradation of chip solder within IGBT modules. This article presents a practical degradation model of the chip solder layer, establishing a functional correlation between the chip solder degradation rate and the number of power cycles. A dynamic compact thermal network model over long time scales is established, and the method for thermal parameter extraction is discussed. The finite-element simulation and experimental results show that the dynamic compact thermal network model can accurately estimate the junction temperature.","PeriodicalId":13085,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging and Manufacturing Technology","volume":"15 1","pages":"123-130"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142993691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
