Description

[0002] Intelligent Power Module (IPM) is a power drive product that combines power electronics and integrated circuit technology. It has the advantages of high current, low saturation voltage and high withstand voltage of GTR (high power transistor), and the advantages of high input impedance, high switching frequency and low driving power of MOSFET (field effect transistor). In the production process of power modules, some defective products will inevitably appear. Parameter testing can effectively screen out defective products that do not meet the specifications and prevent them from entering the market, thereby improving the overall quality level of the product. By performing regular parameter testing on high-voltage integrated circuits, quality changes in the production process can be monitored, problems can be discovered in time, and measures can be taken to correct them.

For example, a strong electromagnetic field may cause errors in the measuring instrument.

At this time, the value measured by the current detector is the VBS working static current.

7. The power module VBS operating current testing method according to claim 5, characterized in that: The S5 specifically includes the following steps: Input square waves of 20K or more to INUH, INVH and INWH through a signal generator to test the working current of the VBU phase, turn on the power supply to VBU, and then disconnect the second relay and the third relay. At this time, the value measured by the current detector is the VBS working dynamic current.
