Abstract
An alternative automotive inverter topology employs
a mixed half bridge (HB) configuration consisting of a silicon
carbide (SiC) junction field-effect transistor (JFET) and a SiC
metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). A
key advantage of this topology is its inherent ability to enter a safe
operating mode – the active short circuit (ASC) – when employed
in automotive inverters in conjunction with a permanent magnet
synchronous motor (PMSM). ASC events are characterized by
significant variability in current amplitude, electrical frequency,
and semiconductor junction temperature. To ensure inverter
robustness under such conditions, extensive testing across a wide
range of operating states is essential. To reduce this enormous
measurement effort, a numerical simulation model of the JFET
based on its static characteristics is presented. The model is
validated using half-sinusoidal surge current pulses at varying
starting temperatures and electrical frequencies. Finally, the
robustness of the semiconductor is evaluated as a function of
the pulse duration during half-sinusoidal surge current events.
Index Terms—JFET, simulation, surge current, SiC.
