Inductance extraction of Press-Pack IGBT by Considering Displacement Current

Abstract

Taking the displacement current generated by charges accumulation into consideration, this paper presents a inductance extraction method for press-pack IGBT where conductor might not form a closed loop in simulation. Charge accumulating on ends of conductor is considered and then Ampere’s circuital law (ACL) could be meet. Vector potential A also could be affected by displacement current, which leads to a different formulation of partial inductance. A simplified model based on practical structure are used in numerical experiment for comparison between existing method and proposed method.
