Abstract

Dynamic compact electrothermal models are developed for Silicon Carbide Power diodes. Model parameters are extracted and model results are presented for both 1500 V SiC Merged PiN diodes. The models are verified for on-state characteristics? temperature dependence and reverse recovery characteristics? di/dt, dv/dt, and temperature dependence.
