Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for predicting gate switch oscillations in GaN-HEMT devices, belonging to the field of semiconductors and power devices. Background Technology
[0002] Gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors (GaN HEMTs) are a new type of wide bandgap semiconductor devices. Their advantages include lower on-resistance and junction capacitance, higher switching speed, efficiency, and power density, making them widely used in power supply systems, power conversion systems, and drive circuits of control systems.
[0003] The high switching speed of GaN devices results in large dv / dt and di / dt, leading to spikes and oscillations in the switching waveform, even when the gate-source voltage V... GS When the fluctuation deviates from the safe range, it can also cause false turn-on of the switching transistor, which makes the driving voltage range of GaN devices very narrow. Existing literature has conducted segmented analysis of this oscillation process, but only provides a qualitative analysis of the impact of parasitic parameters on the gate voltage fluctuation range. To accurately grasp the influence of parasitic parameters on gate-source voltage fluctuation, it is necessary to establish an accurate device model to guide the design of the driving circuit and the selection of device parameters. Existing methods use physical basis equivalent circuit model parameter extraction. Although this method can accurately understand the device structure, for users of device models, the physical basis model is highly dependent on specific material, device and process parameters, and the number of parameters in its equivalent circuit model is very large, making the parameter extraction and partial differential equation solution process very complex (Wang Jiajia. Establishment and Verification of AlGaN / GaN HEMT Device Model [D]. Xi'an University of Electronic Science and Technology, 2017.).
[0004] Large-signal equivalent circuit models offer fast simulation speeds and do not require in-depth research into the relationship between the internal structure and external behavior of devices. They have been widely validated in practice and represent the simplest and most direct engineering approach. The core of this method lies in establishing an input-output correspondence within a certain data range, i.e., obtaining the output from the mapping relationship.
[0005] In recent years, with the widespread application of neural networks in industry, applying artificial neural networks to establish nonlinear parametric models of large-signal devices has advantages in terms of time cost and efficiency. Existing literature has studied the establishment of drain-source current Id under large-signal conditions of GaN HEMT devices based on artificial neural network (ANN) methods.

IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters, 2022, 32(4): 305-307.). While these methods can solve the problem of fitting a large number of model parameters, they still require extracting parameters from small-signal equivalent circuit models, and do not clearly define the significance of parasitic parameters in the device switching process. Furthermore, existing GaN HEMT internal parasitic capacitance models characterize the dependence of the switching transistor on nonlinear voltage under bias conditions. Therefore, modeling the inherent nonlinear capacitance under large-signal excitation results in low simulation accuracy of the GaN HEMT gate-source voltage. In actual operation, the gate-source voltage V... GS Parasitic capacitance may exceed its threshold voltage, leading to false turn-on of the switching transistor, increasing switching losses, causing continuous voltage oscillations in bridge circuit structures, and even reducing converter reliability. Therefore, simulating and predicting the impact of parasitic capacitance on the oscillating voltage of the switching transistor during operation is crucial. Summary of the Invention

[0176] Step 1: Obtain the C of the GaN-HEMT device under test GS C GD and V DS This includes the following steps:
[0177] (1) By changing the external capacitor and drain-source voltage, the values of different C values can be extracted. GS C GD 、 and V DS Maximum gate-source voltage V of GaN-HEMT power device under certain conditions GS_m The true value;
[0178] A double-pulse experiment was performed on GaN HEMT. Figure 8 For this embodiment, in different V DS Lower V GS Waveform test diagram (t): The GaN power transistor used is Innoscience model INN650D02, the GaN HEMT gate driver chip is model SI8271GB-IS, the load capacitance is 10μF, the load inductance is 40μH, the gate adjustable input capacitance is 14-100pf, and the gate-drain adjustable capacitance is 0-12pF.

[0180] Where: input capacitance C iss Output capacitor C oss The relationship between the parasitic capacitance of GaN HEMT and the capacitance of GaN HEMT is shown in equations (39)-(41):
[0181] After the backpropagation process, the parasitic capacitance under full S-parameter conditions is obtained through the S-parameter model of the two-port network function. The S-parameter model of the two-port network function is shown in equation (18-38). The S-parameter model of the two-port network is measured under RF conditions through experiments and compared with the simulation results obtained from ADS software. According to equation (18-38), the measured S-parameter relationship is converted into the impedance Z-parameter relationship in MathCAD, and then the Z-network function relationship is converted into the quantitative relationship of parasitic capacitance. C is extracted using an AM3200 RF device. GS and C GD About V DS The varying parameter sampling points are used to extract experimental setup platform block diagrams for GaN and other RF devices, as shown in the figure. Figure 9 As shown, the test platform mainly includes: an amplifier, two sets of isolators, two sets of T-biasers, two sets of couplers, a source regulator, a load tuner, and a 50-ohm load resistor. Figure 10 To finally obtain the parasitic capacitance C under all S-parameters GS and C GD .
[0182] Step 2: Take the C obtained in Step 1 GS C GD V DS The BP neural network is used for input training. The BP neural network responds to the input C. GS C GD and V DS We perform data training and ultimately obtain V under this method. GS_m Predictive models.
[0183] (1) Transfer data C GS C GD V DSThe input layer of the neural network model is read in, and MATLAB automatically constructs the dataset based on the desired model.
[0184] (2) The system initializes the weight matrix and assigns values to the network weights and biases based on the preset conditions of the input dataset. It then runs the algorithm forward to calculate the output values of each hidden layer and the output layer. In the hidden layers, the signal result is passed to the output layer by multiplying the value of each layer by the corresponding weight and activation function, resulting in V. GS_m The forward propagation output results.
[0185] (3) The backpropagation process of the BPNN model includes: constructing the mean squared error loss function, solving the backpropagation error along the gradient descent direction, solving the error of each hidden layer, and solving the deviation between the output layer and the expected output as shown in equations (13-17). The system, trained using the BP neural network method, can obtain a relatively accurate V. GS_m After determining the value, a cyclic simulation is implemented during the training of the neural network to organize the errors generated by the system. The error values are then fed back to the output to adjust the weights of the neurons, thereby generating a neural network training set that can fit the system's mapping relationship.
[0186] (4) Adjust the weights ω of the obtained results to complete one backpropagation and proceed to the next iteration until the convergence condition is met and the loop is exited. This model continuously adjusts the neuron biases, repeatedly records and trains data, transmits experimentally collected data points to the training set, and sets a maximum of 500 iterations, stopping training after 500 iterations. The measured data is imported into MATLAB for backpropagation calculation, where V... GS_m The true values of the output layer are used to calculate the deviation between the output layer and the expected output. Then, the weights and biases of the neurons are adjusted according to the hidden layer error formulas (16) and (17), and the ratios of the training set, validation set, and test set are adjusted to 70%, 15%, and 15%, respectively.
[0187] The measured S-parameter model in step one is: under thermal bias, selecting GaN HEMT transistors at gate voltage V... GS = -1.0V, V DS =20V; V GS = -1.75V, V DS =16V; V GS = -1.8V, V DS =15V; V GS =-1.2, V DS=20V; and with a bias state where the frequency range f is 0.5-40GHz, the S-parameter model of the two-port network proposed in this invention is simulated to obtain its simulated S-parameters. These simulated S-parameters are then compared with the measured parameters of the GaN HEMT transistor, as shown in the comparison curves. Figure 11 As shown (solid lines represent measured S-parameter data, circles represent simulation parameter data). Figure 10 The simulated S-parameters and the measured S-parameters show good consistency in the Smith chart.
[0188] Step two involves extracting, verifying, and predicting the data collected in the experiment. This includes verifying whether the output results converge and predicting the extreme values of the gate-source voltage oscillations. During the BPNN propagation process, a Bayesian function-based neural network fitting toolbox is used to change the number of hidden neurons to improve accuracy and convergence, obtaining the same V... DS C GS With C GD The parameter values are fitted to the curve. During sample training, the Dropout regularization method is used to discard some neurons whose predicted values exceed the threshold to prevent overfitting of the parameters. The Dropout rate is set to (0.01, 0.25, 0.5).
[0189] To verify the reliability of the relationship between the device parasitic parameters extracted in the above steps and the gate-source voltage, and to accurately predict the misleading gate on-voltage extreme value, this step compares the relative errors of some predicted values with the true values using BPNN, ANN, and PSO algorithms. Figure 12 It can be seen that the standard error of BPNN prediction is smaller than that of ANN and PSO, which proves that the BPNN algorithm model used in this invention has high prediction accuracy.
[0190] Some steps in the embodiments of the present invention can be implemented using software, and the corresponding software program can be stored in a readable storage medium, such as an optical disc or a hard disk.
