 Abstract

In this paper, a practical SPICE model for an IGBT and a PiN diode is proposed based on the Finite Differential Method (FDM). Other than the conventional Fourier model and the Hefner model, the excess carrier distribution can be accurately solved by a fast FDM in the SPICE simulation tool. In order to improve the accuracy of the SPICE model, the Taguchi method is adopted to calibrate the extracted parameters. This paper presents a numerical modelling approach of an IGBT and a PIN diode, which are also verified by SPICE simulations and experiments.
