  • Abstract
    This paper reports the use of two-dimensional numerical simulations in modeling the effects of packaging on the electrical performance of high-power modules. Non-isothermal simulations are performed to study the performance and failure of IGBTs under short-circuit and clamped inductive switching stress.
