This paper presents two basic algorithm concepts for temperature control in the operation of parallel IGBTs to achieve load balancing, with testing conducted in a laboratory setup without heatsinks. The results show that temperature control in parallel IGBT operation is possible but has limitations.
This paper addresses the concept of load balancing in the operation of parallel insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), in which the temperature is used as the main control parameter. In parallel IGBT operation, it is essential to ensure an equal load distribution across all IGBTs. Two basic algorithm concepts for temperature control were developed for the purpose of balancing. A test model based on the parallel IGBTs operation was assembled in a laboratory and the developed algorithms were tested for the chosen parameters. MATLAB was used for final data processing. The comparison between the two implemented basic algorithms provides insights into the temperature behavior of parallel IGBTs in terms of individual IGBT's heating and cooling trajectories and time constants. All tests were conducted without the heatsinks to obtain the worst-case scenario in terms of thermal conditions. The test results show that temperature control in the operation of parallel IGBTs is possible but limited.
