Electro-thermal coupling simulation of high power bipolar transistors

[1987] NASECODE V: Proceedings of the Fifth International Conference on the Numerical Analysis of Semiconductor Devices and Integrated Circuits, 1987
It is shown that a numerical iterative coupling process between an electrical model of high power bipolar transistors and a three-dimensional thermal model (based on the thermal influence coefficient method) of the transistor and its case well predicts the onset of an electro-thermal instability in this kind of devices.

Fully coupled electro-thermal simulation of a micro pirani gauge

2010 IEEE 5th International Conference on Nano/Micro Engineered and Molecular Systems, 2010
In this paper, fully coupled electro-thermal simulation of a micro pirani gauge is presented. The simulation was carried out using CFD-ACE+ software, based on Finite Volume Method (FVM) for multi-disciplinary modeling. Temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of silicon was taken into account for solving the joule heating and heat transfer equations.

Parametric Model Order Reduction for Electro-Thermal Coupled Problems

2019
We consider automatic parametric model order reduction for electro-thermal (ET) coupled problems arising from (nano-)microelectronic simulations. We show that the PMOR method based on multi-moment matching proposed in [2] can be applied to the discretized ET models. The error bound in [6] is used to check the accuracy of the reduced models.

Electro-Thermally Coupled Power Optimization for Future Transistors and Its Applications

IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2007
We report a novel electro-thermally coupled power-optimization methodology for future transistors. The methodology self-consistently yields the globally optimized total power and the corresponding temperature as a function of delay for a given set of transistors (bulk, double-gate FET, fully depleted SOI, and partially depleted SOI) at future ...

Coupled electro-thermal Simulations of single event burnout in power diodes

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2005
Power diodes may undergo destructive failures when they are struck by high-energy particles during the off state (high reverse-bias voltage). This paper describes the failure mechanism using a coupled electro-thermal model. The specific case of a 3500-V diode is considered and it is shown that the temperatures reached when high voltages are applied are

Partially coupled electro-thermal analysis for accurate prediction of switching devices

Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering 2001. Conference Proceedings (Cat. No.01TH8555), 2002
Power hybrid assemblies including IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) are widely used in the application of motor drivers, switching supplies and other power conversion systems. The estimation of the power loss and junction temperature of semiconductor devices has become the major issue with the increase of the current density and high switching ...

Coupled-domain nonlinear macromodels and pull-in characteristics with electro-thermal effect

TRANSDUCERS '03. 12th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems. Digest of Technical Papers (Cat. No.03TH8664), 2004
In this paper, we describe an efficient coupled-domain nonlinear macromodeling method for microsystems, and present the study of electro-thermal effects on the pull-in characteristic for a fixed-fixed beam by using this approach. The macromodeling method applies both the Karhunen-Loeve/Galerkin technique and the Arnoldi technique.
