摘要
A physics-based model for the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is implemented into the widely available circuit simulation package IG-SPICE. Based on analytical equations describing the semiconductor-physics, the model accurately describes the nonlinear junction capacitances, moving boundaries, recombination, and carrier scattering, and effectively predicts the device conductivity modulation. In this paper, the procedure used to incorporate the model into IG-SPICE and various methods necessary to ensure convergence are described. The effectiveness of the SPICE-based IGBT model is demonstrated by investigating the static and dynamic current sharing of paralleled IGBTs with different device model parameters. The simulation results are verified by comparison with experimental results.
