Transient Electro-Thermal Modeling on Power Semiconductor Devices
暫譯: 功率半導體器件的瞬態電熱模型分析

本書介紹了雙極性功率半導體裝置的基於物理的電熱模型，包括其封裝，並描述了它們在 MATLAB 和 Simulink 中的實現。這是我們第一本書《雙極性功率半導體裝置建模》的延續。裝置的電氣模型是通過將裝置劃分為不同區域來開發的，並分析每個區域的操作以及界面之間的相互作用，使用基本的半導體物理方程來描述裝置行為。傅立葉級數解法用於解決裝置輕摻雜漂移區的雙極擴散方程。除了外部電氣特性外，還可以使用這些模型獲得內部物理和電氣信息，例如結電壓和裝置不同區域的載流子分佈。使用電氣裝置模型計算的瞬時耗散功率作為整個模組或封裝的熱模型（具有恆定和非恆定熱阻及熱容量的 RC 網絡，或傅立葉熱模型）的輸入，該模型計算裝置的結溫。一旦計算出更新的結溫，則重新計算溫度依賴的半導體材料參數，並在模擬的下一個時間步驟中與裝置電氣模型一起使用。基於物理的電熱模型可用於優化裝置和封裝設計，也可用於驗證提取的裝置參數。熱模型可以單獨用於監測功率半導體裝置的結溫，並且所得到的模擬結果可作為半導體功率裝置健康和可靠性的指標。
