Lesson 2 - Thermal management in power semiconductor devices Semester 1 - Power Electronics Devices Electrical Energy Conversion and Power Systems Universidad de Oviedo 3

4 Outline Basic concepts and calculation about thermal management in power semiconductor devices. The main topics to be addressed in this lesson are the following:  Introduction.  Thermal resistances and electric equivalent circuits.  Heat sinks for power electronic devices.  Thermal calculations in transient operation.

5 Main ideas about heat transfer Heat transfer occurs through three mechanisms: Radiation. Conduction. Convection. Only significant for space applications. Significant for general power applications. Conduction: the heat is transferred by the vibratory motion of atoms or molecules. Convection: the heat is transferred by mass movement of a fluid. It could be natural convection (without a fan) or forced convection (with a fan). In both cases, the heat transfer process can be approached using equivalent electric circuits. However, a detailed study of the heat transfer mechanisms is more complex and it is beyond the scope of this course.

1 2 6 Simple static thermal model (I) T1T1 T2T2 A Q 12_cond Simple model for heat conduction: Q 12_cond = (T 1 – T 2 )/R th12_cond, where: Q 12_cond = rate of heat energy transferred from 1 to 2 due to conduction. T 1 = temperature at 1. T 2 = temperature at 2. R th12_cond = thermal resistance between 1 and 2 due to conduction. Simple model for convection: Q 12_conv = h(T 1,T 2, )·A·(T 1 – T 2 ), where: Q 12_conv = rate of heat energy transferred from 1 to 2 due to convection. h = film coefficient of heat transfer. = fluid velocity. A = cross-sectional area. Q 12_conv

1 2 7 Simple static thermal model (II) T1T1 T2T2 Q 12 Q 12_cond = (T 1 – T 2 )/R th12_cond Q 12_conv = h(T 1,T 2, )·A·(T 1 – T 2 ) Over the temperature ranges of interest (from -40 o C +100 o C) h is fairly constant for a given value of. Therefore: Q 12_conv = h( )·A·(T 1 – T 2 ) = (T 1 – T 2 )/R th12_conv ( ), where: R th12_conv ( ) = 1/[h( )·A] The total rate of heat energy transferred from 1 to 2 will be: Q 12 = Q 12_cond + Q 12_conv and therefore: Q 12 = (T 1 – T 2 )/R th12 ( ) where: R th12 ( ) = 1/[1/R th12_cond + 1/R th12_conv ( )] is the thermal resistance between 1 and 2. Q 12_cond Q 12_conv

8 Simple static thermal model (III) 1 2 T1T1 T2T2 Q 12 Q 12 = (T 1 – T 2 )/R th12 ( ) We will use the notation “R th12 ” (or “R  12 ”) for the thermal resistance in natural and forced convection. Its value will depend on the fluid (air) velocity. We can re-write the above mentioned equation replacing the rate of heat energy transferred from 1 to 2 with the power transferred from 1 to 2: P 12 = (T 1 – T 2 )/R th12 Now, we can establish a direct relationship between this equation and Ohm’s law: P 12 = (T 1 – T 2 )/R th12 i 12 = (V 1 – V 2 )/R 12 R th  R ΔT  ΔV P  i R i 12 V1V1 V2V2 Electric world Thermal world

19 Thermal resistance case to ambient, R thCA Its value depends on the case. Manufacturers give information about R thJA = R thJC + R thCA. Therefore, R thCA = R thJA - R thJC.

1 2 T1T1 T2T2 T 2 > T 1 29 Transient thermal model (I) So far our discussion and models have been limited to systems in which both the energy being dissipated and the temperatures within the system are constant. Our models do not represent the following situations:  Star-up processes, where dissipation may be constant, but temperatures are climbing.  Pulsed operation, where temperatures may be constant, but dissipation is not. The latter situation is the most important one, since under such conditions the junction temperature can be much higher than the one predicted by static models. Thermal inertia can be characterized by capacitors in the equivalent electric model. T1T1 P 21 R th21 T1T1 0 o C 2 1 T2T2 C th21 Q 21

30 Transient thermal model (II) Transient thermal model for a star-up process, P being constant: TATA C J P= constant TJTJ TCTC R thHA R thJC TATA 0 o C H R thCH A THTH C thHA C thCH Under this condition, the junction temperature will be lower than the one predicted by static models, due to the fact that the total thermal impedance will be lower than the thermal resistance. C thJC C thJC << C thCH << C thHA

31 Transient thermal model (III) Transient thermal model for pulsed-power operation in steady-state (I) (after the start-up process) T H and T C can be computed from P avg, because R thHA ·C thHA >> t S and R thCH ·C thCH >> t S. Hence, the AC component of P can be removed and, therefore: T H = T A + P avg ·R thHA and T C = T H + P avg ·R thCH However, R thHA ·C thHA may be lower than t S and, therefore, T J cannot be computed from R thJC and P avg. TATA C J P = pulsed TJTJ TCTC R thHA R thJC TATA 0 o C H R thCH A THTH C thHA C thCH C thJC C thJC << C thCH << C thHA P tStS tCtC P avg Duty cycle: D = t C /t S

32 Transient thermal model (IV) The maximum value of the actual temperature is not as low as T J_average. The maximum value of the actual temperature is not as high as T J_wide_pulse. How can we compute the maximum value of the actual temperature?  Transient thermal impedance. C J P = pulsed TJTJ TCTC R thJC TCTC 0 o C C thJC P P peak tStS tCtC P avg Transient thermal model for pulsed-power operation in steady-state (II) (after the start-up process) T j_avg T j_actual T T J_ wide_pulse = T C + P peak ·R thJC T J_avg = T C + P avg ·R thJC Constant T TCTC

33 Transient thermal model (V) We know that T J_wide_pulse > T J_max > T J_avg. We will compute T J_max considering P peak and an impedance lower than R thJC. This impedance is called transient thermal impedance, Z thJC (t). Its value depends on the duty cycle and on the switching frequency. The final equation to compute T J_max is: T J_max = T C + P peak ·Z thJC (t) Concept of transient thermal impedance T J_ wide_pulse = T C + P peak ·R thJC T J_avg = T C + P avg ·R thJC P P peak tStS tCtC P avg T j_actual T T J_ wide_pulse T J_ avg T j_max
