Tips and Tricks On Double-Pulse Testing for Power Electronics

Explore the double-pulse testing method which comprehensively verifies the converter design incl. switching losses, switching characteristics for all operating modes, and switching times and energies.


In partnership with Rohde & Schwarz

This webinar is intended for engineers who work on power electronics design and test. We will be discussing the double-pulse testing method which comprehensively verifies the converter design incl. switching losses, switching characteristics for all operating modes, and switching times and energies.

After introducing you to this method we will be looking at the theory on effects of parasitics, the test setup and the test procedure. You will be learning how to design the test with respect to circuit parameters provided by the right load inductor and DC link capacitor.

Discussions on voltage and current probing, de-skewing, and grounding will be guiding you through the measurement setup. Practical measurement examples with a SiC MOSFET device will be illustrating this webinar.
