The article describes a comprehensive approach to dynamic performance determination tests of SiC MOSFET power modules. Experimental verification was performed using ultra-fast switching (1,2 kV, 495 A) module from Microsemi. The obtained results are compared to results acquired by measurements performed with compliance to a commonly-used standard that does not consider phenomena that significantly impact switching processes of fast-switching SiC MOSFET power modules.

W artykule przedstawiono metodykę badań parametrów dynamicznych modułów tranzystorowych nowej generacji bazujących na tranzystorach MOSFET z węglika krzemu (SiC). Przeprowadzono badania eksperymentalne dla bardzo szybko przełączającego modułu tranzystorowego firmy Microsemi (1,2 kV, 495 A). Otrzymane wyniki porównano z wynikami uzyskanymi na podstawie powszechnie wykorzystywanego standardu wyznaczania parametrów dynamicznych tranzystorów MOSFET, który nie uwzględnia szeregu zjawisk znacząco wpływających na procesy łączeniowe szybko przełączających tranzystorów SiC MOSFET.
