Abstract :
In order to analyze the electrical behavior of IGBT module, optimize new designs with reliability considerations, accurate models of semiconductor linking with wiring models are needed. So, this paper presents the both semiconductor and wiring modeling approaches and simulation methodology for the analysis of electrical and electromagnetic coupling phenomena. In order to validate this simulation approach, the method is applied to an IGBT 3.3 kV/1200A power module.
