Inhalt:
A test bench used for measuring switching energy and the conduction voltage of power semiconductors is presented. The system can vary its temperature, voltage, and current. Additionally, due to a special variable gate-driver-system, it is capable of adjusting the positive and negative gate voltages as well as the external gate resistance. The application software can configure a series of different tests by adjusting the test parameters. It supports the developer to find a suitable power semiconductor for a given power electronic design.
