Power electronics

Preparing the books to read every day is enjoyable for many people. However, there are still many people who also don't like reading. This is a problem. But, when you can support others to start reading, it will be better. One of the books that can be recommended for new readers is computer aided analysis of electronic circuits algorithms and computational techniques. This book is not kind of difficult book to read. It can be read and understand by the new readers.

Computer-aided analysis of electronic circuits: Algorithms and computational techniques

Handbook of Magnetic Materials

This paper proposes a synthesis of different electrical methods used to estimate the temperature of power semiconductor devices. The following measurement methods are introduced: the voltage under low current levels, the threshold voltage, the voltage under high current levels, the gate-emitter voltage, the saturation current, and the switching times. All these methods are then compared in terms of sensitivity, linearity, accuracy, genericity, calibration needs, and possibility of characterizing the thermal impedance or the temperature during the operation of the converter. The measurement of thermo-sensitive parameters of wide bandgap semiconductors is also discussed.

Temperature Measurement of Power Semiconductor Devices by Thermo-Sensitive Electrical Parameters—A Review

A new evaluation method of thermal transient measurement results

In this paper, the isothermal model of power MOS transistors offered by the producer of these devices and the electrothermal model of these devices proposed by the authors are presented. The results of experimental verification of both the models are given as well.

The Electrothermal Large-Signal Model of Power MOS Transistors for SPICE

In this paper, the nonlinear compact thermal model of power semiconductor devices based on the Cauer network is proposed. The analytical description of the model and the method of the model parameter estimation are presented. The accuracy and usefulness of the model is verified experimentally for the selected metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) power transistor at its various cooling conditions.

Nonlinear Compact Thermal Model of Power Semiconductor Devices

The paper concerns modeling the nonisothermal characteristics of switch-mode voltage regulators (VRs) consisting of the boost converter with discrete semiconductor devices and a monolithic current-mode pulsewidth modulation controller. New electrothermal hybrid models of a p-n diode and a power metal oxide semiconductor transistor, as well as the electrothermal model of the monolithic UC3842 controller dedicated for SPICE analysis of switch-mode VRs are presented and described in detail. The results of simulations verified experimentally are given as well.

Modeling Nonisothermal Characteristics of Switch-Mode Voltage Regulators

Parameter estimation of the electrothermal model of the ferromagnetic core

In this paper, a new method for fast estimation of the characteristics of single-inductance dc-dc converters at the steady state with self-heating taken into account is proposed. This method is based on the special memoryless convolution algorithm. The method is described in detail. The theoretical considerations are illustrated with simulation results of buck and boost converters.
