Abstract
The switching characteristics (turn-on and turn-off) and forward conduction drop of trench-gate IGBTs are examined over a temperature range of -260 to 25/spl deg/C. A physics-based model previously developed is modified to incorporate appropriate physical behavior at low junction temperatures. Results from the model are compared to experimental waveforms and discrepancies are discussed.
