How to Use
- Select component type (MOSFET, IGBT, diode, or inductor) from the cat-filter dropdown menu
- Enter operating parameters: junction temperature (°C), drain-source voltage (V), gate-source voltage (V), and switching frequency (kHz)
- Review calculated losses (conduction, switching, reverse-recovery) and thermal resistance (°C/W) in real-time output panel
- Export efficiency map and thermal derating curves as CSV for thermal management design
Worked Example
A 600V IGBT in a 10 kW three-phase inverter operates at 15 kHz switching frequency with Tj = 125°C. Input Vce(sat) = 2.1 V at 50 A nominal current and Eon + Eoff = 8.5 µJ per cycle. Conduction loss = 50 A × 2.1 V × 0.67 duty = 70.35 W. Switching loss = (8.5 µJ × 15 kHz) × 50 A / 50 A = 127.5 W. Total = 197.85 W. With Rth(j-c) = 0.35 °C/W and case-to-ambient = 0.8 °C/W, junction rises 197.85 W × (0.35 + 0.8) = 226 °C above ambient—flagging thermal derating need.
Practical Notes
- Verify datasheet Vce(sat) temperature coefficient (+0.008 V/°C typical for IGBTs): forward losses increase 15–20% from 25°C to 150°C junction
- Account for diode reverse-recovery charge Qrr (typically 50–200 nC for 600V devices); energy loss during freewheeling adds 5–15% to switching losses in hard-switched topologies
- Heatsink selection requires thermal resistance below (Tj,max − Ta) / Ploss; parallel devices reduce individual Rth(j-c) but introduce current-sharing complexity above 30 A per device
- Use snubber capacitors (10–100 nF) across inductive loads to suppress dV/dt spikes and reduce EMI-related losses by 10–25%
