Abstract :
Minimum stray inductances are of high importance for power modules and stacks of converters. This paper describes the optimization of the stray inductance for a compact DBC based three-phase power module for use in 5 to 20 kW converters for automotive application. The inductances of different DBC layouts and mounting technologies are compared and optimized, including chip connection with soldered tapes. The simulated values are compared with measurement results.
