COVER STORY
It is important to note that soft turn off energy is not related to the
EOFF during hard switching included in most IGBT datasheets. This
makes device comparison more difficult because a major contributor
to losses in this application is not specified in datasheets. Figure 6
shows the disparity between soft switching losses as measured and
hard switching losses specified in a datasheet.
For correct Diode selection on SEPR converter, the following facts
should be considered: the Diodes losses are due mainly to the forward voltage drop VF, and the forward recovery voltage VFR. The
Diode has no Reverse Recovery Losses on this converter because it
turns-off at ZVS condition, and this is because the IGBT is already
ON during this stage, as shown in figure 7. Also, the Diode commuted OFF at low di/dt, typically lower than 10A/us; this helps to have a
smaller reverse recovery current. This means that during a short period of time, Inductor current is shared by the IGBT and Diodes
reverse recovery current. Attention needs to be taken with the
Diodes forward recovery voltage VFR, because it could be a significant parameter if it is not optimized for this application. The Diodes
losses are significantly smaller compared to IGBTs losses if it is adequately selected and optimized for this application.
