Abstract

The parallel connection of IGBTs has been being applied in high power neutral point clamped (NPC) three level converters. This paper investigates the impact of gate parameters (gate resistor and capacitance) on dynamic current imbalance of parallel connected IGBT for NPC three level converter. A gate parameters calculation method is proposed in the paper, and the delay time and collector current difference can be analysed quantitatively. Experimental results have shown the effectiveness of the method.
