Dynamic Parameter Validation (Basic and Advanced Dynamic IGBT and Basic Dynamic Power MOSFET)

In the Dynamic Parameter Validation page, you can check the accuracy of the parameterized component through the validation of switching energies. The table populates with data at the nominal and difference temperatures used to create the model. To the left of the Enable button are the switching energies entered for the model creation; to the right are those calculated through the dynamic model for validation.

To validate the model:

1. Click Validate to calculate the energies in a test configuration.

   Entries on the right hand side of the Enable check box populate after the validation process ends. The validation is performed through a series of transient analyses under the specified working conditions.

   Note:

   Select or clear the Enable check box to enable or disable the validation process for any row in the table.

2. Click Show Log to view a copy of the simulation log showing both the Data sheet value and the Simulation results as well as the Error percentage between the two sets of data.
3. When finished, click Next to continue characterizing the device (see Model Parameters).
