Abstract in another language

This paper presents a numerical method used
to analyse the parallel connection of several SiC
MOSFET dies. Parallel connection is necessary to
achieve the desired current carrying capability of
main inverters for xEV-drives. With this method the
effect of asymmetries within the chips’ parameters,
especially the threshold voltage, are investigated.
The investigation results quantify to what extent the
PTC behaviour of the on-state resistance can mitigate
the overheating of one chip caused by switching
loss imbalance. The results are used to define
the necessary derating of the inverter output power,
so that no single chip is thermally overstressed.
