Abstract

An IGBT modeling method includes creating piece-wise line functions describing a collector-emitter voltage vce, a collector current ic and a gate-emitter voltage vge of the IGBT during a switching-on transient based on an internal structure of the IGBT and transient processes of the IGBT. The IGBT modeling method further includes creating piece-wise line functions describing the collector-emitter voltage vce, the collector current ic and the gate-emitter voltage vge of the IGBT during a switching-off transient based on the internal structure of the IGBT and the transient processes.
