Simulations and tests were carried out to consider the influence of total losses on the different amplitudes and durations of the desaturated pulse. The relationship among the gate desaturated pulse, conducting losses, and recovery losses is discussed. In this paper, a mathematic model is developed, referring to the datasheets and measurement data, to study the 6.5 kV/1000 A RC- IGBT switching features. In the same cooling conditions, RC- IGBT allows for a higher operating temperature. Reverse Conducting IGBT (RC- IGBT constructs the conventional IGBT function and freewheel diode function in a single chip, which has a greater flow ability in the same package volume. Loss Characteristics of 6.5 kV RC- IGBT Applied to a Traction Converterĭirectory of Open Access Journals (Sweden)įull Text Available 6.5 kV level IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor modules are widely applied in megawatt locomotive (MCUs traction converters, to achieve an upper 3.5 kV DC link, which is beneficial for decreasing power losses and increasing the power density. The method works and test experiences are presented in paper. The dc link voltage is 2.4 kV and the RMS output line to line voltage is 1.7 kV. Sundvall, J.Ī simple method of serial connecting IGBT's is applied and standard low voltage IGBT modules are used in the MV test inverter to evaluate the method.
