Abstract
Based on the practical device structure, experimental data and numerical modeling results, impacts of the device parameters on the performance of a 55 mm, 4.5-kV MOS turn-off thyristor (MTO) are presented. The numerical analysis includes an external thermal resistance and realistic representation of the practical snubber switching circuit. Unity-gain turn-off capability of the MTO was demonstrated and the turn-off failure mechanism due to the non-uniform cell was clearly shown
