Abstract :
In this paper the method of simulation allowing the complete design of a cell structure as well as a proper edge termination structure of a 600 V-PT-IGBT is described. Because of the use of different device simulators a brief comparison between the simulated results is made. With a proper range of simulation steps the cell structure of an IGBT is optimised for low on-stateand switching losses. The edge termination structure was found by using field plate structures and OFP-FLR-structures
