Abstract :
Two models are proposed for digital simulations involving power diodes and thyristors. The models simulate all operating regions of the devices, and include transient and thermal behavior. Particular emphasis has been placed on reverse recovery behaviors, to improve simulation accuracy in high frequency and multiple device applications. Either model can be completely specified from standard data sheet parameters.
