Abstract
- Two-dimensional numerical simulation of switching processes for equivalent silicon insulated gate bipolar transistors of CSTBT-type and hybrid SITh-MOS thyristors (HSMT) has been performed. It is shown that the energy of switching losses during turning on and off periods in HSMT is greater than in totaly equivalent CSTBT. Therefore, the time-averaged power Pav dissipated in HSMT is smaller than in equivalent CSTBT only for rather long total current pulse duration. However, lowering the lifetime of nonequilibrium charge carriers tnp in the SITh can significantly reduce switching losses of the whole HSMT, while maintaining its advantage for the static on state. Therefore, for each set of CSTBT parameters it seams to be possible to select up such tnp in "almost equivalent" HSMT that the averaged power dissipation in HSMT will be less, than in equivalent CSTBT, for any set ranges of current pulse amplitude and duration.<br />Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, in Russian
