Chapter 1 Power Electronic Devices Outline 1.1 An introductory overview of power electronic devices 1.2 Uncontrolled device—power diode 1.3 Half- controlled device—thyristor 1.4 Typical fully- controlled devices 1.5 Other new power electronic devices 1.1 An introductory overview of power electronic devices The concept and features Power electronic devices: are the electronic devices that can be directly used in the power processing circuits to convert or control electric power. Very often: Power electronic devices= Power semiconductor devices Major material used in power semiconductor devices——Silicon Features of power electronic devices a) The electric power that power electronic device deals with is usually much larger than that the information electronic device does. b) Usually working in switching states to reduce power losses c)Need to be controlled by information electronic circuits. d)Very often, drive circuits are necessary to interface between information circuits and power circuits. e)Dissipated power loss usually larger than information electronic devices —special packaging and heat sink are necessary. 2) Configuration of systems using power electronic devices Power electronic system: Protection circuit is also very often used in power electronic system especially for the expensive power semiconductors. Terminals of a power electronic device Control signal from drive circuit must be connected between the control terminal and a fixed power circuit terminal (therefore called common terminal Major topics for each device Appearance, structure, and symbol Physics of operation Specification Special issues Devices of the same family Passive components in power electronic circuit Transformer, inductor, capacitor and resistor: these are passive components in a power electron ic circuit since they can not be controlled by control signal
