Results and discussions • • • Temperature influences the carrier mobility, high-level lifetime, which leads to the changes of device DC and dynamic characteristics. Reduced die-attach area increases the base resistance so as to the total onstate resistance, while the turn-on transient is affected by the Agd so as to the Cgdj. The tapped electrons in gate oxide reduces the Vt, which influences the DC characteristics and the dynamic delay times: td(on) and td(off). The gate oxide degradation influences the transconductance which can mainly be reflected on the device DC characteristics. Case 5 illustrates the combined aging effects caused by the solder fatigue and gate oxide degradation. Simulation results show there exists the change of device terminal characteristics due to aging, which can be used for CM. ESR Network
II. VSI characteristic harmonics simulation ESR Network
Aims of study • To investigate the effect of the devices aging on the power converter characteristic harmonics. • To form a basis for the study of harmonic resonance based power converter CM method. • To built a simulation model to investigate other power converter terminal characteristics affected by device aging, eg. EMI characteristics. ESR Network

Results and discussions • The IGBT Vce 0 and switching behavior determines the amplitude of characteristic harmonics through changing the V-A characteristics of output PWM voltage during aging. • Simulation results show that characteristics harmonics are more sensitive to the changes of temperature while the other factors may have slight effects on them. • Under the predefined simulation conditions, a deviation of about 0. 3 V can be reached for 5 th harmonic. Such a variation falls in the range where our previous harmonic resonance method is capable of detecting. ESR Network
III. Problems ESR Network
Problems • Power electronics modelling and simulation – As Saber model is difficult to be parameterized, which can be solved by using Angus’s devices model. And there comes the problems of obtaining the permission of this model for the research of the project. • Conflicting results of IGBT characteristics degradation – Our simulation results show that Ron decreases with the rise in temperature because of the negative temperature coefficient of resistance for p-n junction [2]. While some literatures reported an increase of Vce(sat) after aging which was explained by the consequence of increased channel resistance [3].

Terminal characteristics simulation • More simulations will be carried out to further study the terminal characteristics of device and converter under different conditions, eg. working point, ambient temperature and unbalanced operation. • Electrothermal simulations will be carried out in order to take the device self-heating effect in to account. • Detailed analysis will be made systematically to correlate the characteristics changes to the device conditions.
