Abstract
This paper presents a computer-based system for experimental validation and calibration of thermal models for multi-chip power electronic modules. The thermal models under study are based on the thermal component network. The paper describes the basic system features and experimental set up as well as experimental results. Calibration results show good performance for the proposed models.
