Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic device testing and measurement technology, specifically to a non-invasive crimp-type IGBT current distribution measurement method and device. Background Technology
[0002] Press-fit IGBT devices have attracted much attention due to their widespread application in high-voltage, high-power power electronic equipment, playing a crucial role in rail transportation, renewable energy, and industrial frequency conversion equipment. As a high-performance power switching device, press-fit IGBTs need to withstand high voltage and high current during operation, and the current uniformity of its internal parallel chips is crucial to the device's robustness and reliability. However, uneven current distribution within the device may cause local chips to bear excessive current loads, leading to electrical or thermal breakdown, which becomes a major factor in device failure.
[0003] To address this issue, researching current distribution measurement methods for parallel chips within press-fit IGBTs is of great significance. It can not only provide a reference for chip selection and optimized packaging design, but also improve device reliability.
[0004] However, because the internal chips of press-fit IGBTs are typically hermetically packaged and densely packed, the resulting complex electromagnetic field environment causes significant interference to the measurement system, making it difficult for existing technologies to accurately measure current distribution. Furthermore, traditional invasive measurement methods, such as integrating PCB Rogowski coils inside the device, while offering high measurement accuracy, damage the original packaging structure, alter internal parameters, and affect the device's normal operation.

[0069] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0070] The acquisition, storage, use, and processing of data in this application all comply with the relevant provisions of national laws and regulations.
[0071] Considering that traditional invasive measurement methods, such as integrating PCB Rogowski coils inside the device, although achieving high measurement accuracy, can damage the original packaging structure and alter its internal parameters, this application provides a non-invasive method and apparatus for measuring the current distribution of press-fit IGBTs. By constructing an AMR magnetic sensor array, the magnetic field distribution around the press-fit IGBT is detected in real time. Then, the current distribution inside the press-fit IGBT is deduced through the LANDWEBER iterative algorithm. This method does not require damaging the packaging structure of the press-fit IGBT and can detect the internal current distribution of the press-fit IGBT in real time in a non-invasive manner.
[0072] To enable real-time, non-invasive detection of the internal current distribution of a press-fit IGBT without damaging its package structure, this application provides an embodiment of a non-invasive press-fit IGBT current distribution measurement method. See [link to embodiment]. Figure 1 The non-invasive crimp-type IGBT current distribution measurement method specifically includes the following:
[0073] Step S101: The magnetic field strength generated by multiple parallel press-fit IGBTs to be tested is acquired based on a pre-built measurement array. The multiple parallel press-fit IGBT chips to be tested are disposed on protrusions inside the pre-built measurement array. The measurement array includes multiple AMR magnetic sensors uniformly placed along a circle. The magnetic field direction formed by the multiple parallel press-fit IGBT chips is consistent along the clockwise or counterclockwise direction of the circle. The protrusions are uniformly arranged along concentric circles inside the circle.
[0074] First, multiple parallel-connected press-fit IGBT chips to be tested are placed on the protrusions of the measurement array. The measurement array consists of multiple AMR (anisotropic magnetoresistive) magnetic sensors, which are evenly distributed on a circular structure and arranged around the protrusions. The protrusions are designed to fix and position the IGBT chips, ensuring that each chip has a clear geometric relationship at the center of the array. To ensure measurement accuracy, the direction of the magnetic field generated by the chips (determined by the current flow) must be consistent within the circular arrangement, i.e., the magnetic field direction must be uniformly clockwise or counterclockwise, to avoid interference and measurement errors caused by inconsistent magnetic field directions.
[0075] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, six AMR magnetic sensors (1A to 6A) are arranged on the measurement array, each evenly spaced at 60° intervals on a circle, while the IGBT chip is located on a protrusion at the center of the array. The tangential sensitivity direction of each sensor is designed to be consistent with the direction of the magnetic field generated by the chip, thereby ensuring that the sensor can sense the magnetic field component of the chip to the greatest extent.
[0076] Among them, see Figure 2 The central area has five protrusions (1B to 5B), with one protrusion at the center and the other four spaced at 90° intervals. The IGBT chip is located on the protrusions. In the schematic diagram, the current direction is perpendicular to the plane and inwards. Six AMR magnetic sensors are evenly placed around the protrusions to form a measurement array. The AMR is only sensitive to the tangential direction of the circle in the diagram and outputs an analog voltage through the magnetic field strength.
[0077] Step S102: Simulate the magnetic field strength detected by each AMR sensor based on vacuum permeability, IGBT chip current, and distance from the IGBT chip to the AMR sensor.
[0078] Next, the magnetic field strength that each AMR sensor can detect is simulated based on a physical model. Specifically, each current path in the chip generates a magnetic field in the surrounding space. According to the Biot-Savart law, the magnetic field strength is directly proportional to the current value and inversely proportional to the distance between the sensor and the chip. This process provides accurate simulated values for the subsequent construction of the magnetic flux density matrix.
[0079] Step S103: Construct the current magnetic induction intensity calculation matrix based on the magnetic field strength detected by each AMR sensor, the magnetic induction intensity calculation coefficient of each AMR sensor, and the current of each IGBT chip. The magnetic induction intensity is determined based on the vacuum permeability, the distance from each IGBT chip to each AMR sensor, and the angle between the vertical direction and the distance direction.
[0080] Based on the obtained magnetic field strength detected by the sensor, a magnetic field strength calculation matrix is constructed according to the magnetic flux density calculation coefficient of each AMR sensor and the current value of each IGBT chip. The magnetic flux density calculation coefficient is determined by the following factors:
[0081] Vacuum permeability: used to describe the transmission characteristics of magnetic fields in a vacuum.
[0082] Distance: The geometric distance between the sensor and the IGBT chip.
[0083] Angle: The angle between the sensor's sensitive direction and the direction of the magnetic field generated by the chip current.
[0084] For example, if the measurement array contains 5 sensors and 3 chips, then a 5x3 magnetic induction intensity matrix can be obtained, where each matrix element corresponds to the magnetic field contribution generated by a certain sensor sensing the current of a certain chip.
[0085] By constructing this matrix, the chip current distribution can be correlated with the magnetic field strength detected by the sensor, providing a mathematical model for subsequent solutions.
[0086] Step S104: Solve for the IGBT chip current in the magnetic induction intensity calculation matrix to realize the IGBT current distribution measurement.
[0087] Finally, the constructed magnetic flux density matrix is solved using the Landweb iteration method. The Landweb iteration is a numerical algorithm suitable for deriving the current distribution of an IGBT chip from magnetic field data measured by sensors. Its core idea is to progressively optimize the estimated chip current to make it as close as possible to the true value.
[0088] Specifically, an initial value is first set, for example, the initial estimate of the current of all chips is set to zero. In each iteration, the algorithm calculates the residual based on the current estimate, which is the difference between the sensor measurement and the calculated value. Then, the chip current estimate is corrected based on the residual, gradually approximating the actual current distribution.
[0089] For example, in this application, the current distribution of each IGBT chip can be accurately obtained by using the LANDWEBER iterative method, providing an important basis for evaluating the chip's operating status.
[0090] As can be seen from the above description, the non-invasive crimped IGBT current distribution measurement method provided in this application embodiment can detect the magnetic field distribution around the crimped IGBT in real time by constructing an AMR magnetic sensor array, and then deduce the internal current distribution of the crimped IGBT through the LANDWEBER iterative algorithm, without destroying the packaging structure of the crimped IGBT, and detect the internal current distribution of the crimped IGBT in real time in a non-invasive manner.
[0091] In an optional embodiment, the simulation of the magnetic field strength detected by each AMR sensor based on vacuum permeability, IGBT chip current, and the distance from the IGBT chip to the AMR sensor includes:
[0092] The magnetic field strength detected by each AMR sensor is simulated based on the following formula:
[0093]
[0094] Where B is the magnetic field strength detected by each AMR sensor;
[0095] μ0 is the vacuum permeability;
[0096] I represents the current of the IGBT chip;
[0097] r is the distance from the IGBT chip to the AMR sensor.
[0098] In an optional embodiment, the step of constructing a current magnetic flux density calculation matrix based on the magnetic field strength detected by each AMR sensor, according to the magnetic flux density calculation coefficient of each AMR sensor and the current of each IGBT chip, includes:
[0099] The current magnetic flux density calculation matrix is constructed based on the following formula:
[0100]
[0101] Among them, B1 to B m The magnetic flux density of each AMR sensor;
[0102] I1 to I n The current of each IGBT chip;
[0103] M 11 To M mn Calculate the magnetic flux density coefficient for each AMR sensor;
[0104]
[0105] Where, r mnThe distance from each IGBT chip to each AMR sensor;
[0106] θ mn The angle between the vertical direction and the distance direction from each IGBT chip to each AMR sensor.
[0107] For example, see Figure 2 With 6 AMR sensors, the array output matrix is as follows:
[0108]
[0109] in,
[0110] Through the above steps, a magnetic flux density calculation matrix B = MI was constructed. Therefore, it can be seen that the sensor output is linearly related to the current flowing through the conductor.
[0111] However, M may contain interference that leads to irreversibility. In order to obtain the value of I more accurately, this application uses the LANDWEBER iterative algorithm for calculation.
[0112] LANDWEBER iteration is an iterative method for solving inverse linear problems, primarily used to find the unknown vector x in a system of linear equations Ax = b. The basic formula for LANDWEBER iteration is as follows:
[0113]
[0114] Where, x (k) It is the approximate solution of the k-th iteration, where α is the step size (or relaxation parameter), and A T It is the transpose of matrix A.
[0115] The iterative process begins with an initial guess x(0), typically chosen as the zero vector. In each iteration, the residual r between the current approximate solution x(k) and the true solution is calculated. (k) =b-Ax (k) The approximate solution x(k) is updated by adding the residual r. (k) The product of matrix A and its transpose, multiplied by the step size α.
[0116] The step size α is a key parameter that affects the convergence speed and stability of the iteration. If α is too large, the iteration may diverge; if α is too small, the convergence speed will be very slow.
[0117] Typically, α is chosen to be less than The value of , where ||A|| is the norm of matrix A. The convergence of the LANDWEBER iteration depends on the properties of matrix A and the choice of step size α. If A is a matrix with full column rank and α is chosen appropriately, then the LANDWEBER iteration will converge to the minimum norm solution of the system of equations Ax = b.
[0118] In one embodiment of the non-invasive crimp-type IGBT current distribution measurement method of this application, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 The step of solving for the IGBT chip current in the magnetic flux density calculation matrix to achieve IGBT current distribution measurement includes:
[0119] Step S104A: Based on the magnetic induction intensity calculation matrix, using the magnetic field intensity data measured by the sensor and the magnetic induction intensity calculation coefficient matrix, initialize the IGBT chip current distribution to zero, and set the iteration step size parameter to ensure that the results gradually converge.
[0120] In the initial stage, based on the magnetic flux density calculation matrix, the magnetic field strength data measured by sensors and the magnetic flux density calculation coefficient matrix are first used as input parameters to provide the foundation for the calculation model. Then, the IGBT chip current distribution is initialized to zero as the starting point for iterative solution. At this point, it is assumed that all chip currents are zero so that continuous optimization can be achieved through iteration. To ensure that the results gradually converge and avoid algorithm divergence, an appropriate iteration step size parameter needs to be set. Typically, the step size parameter is set to a value less than the reciprocal of the norm of the magnetic flux density matrix to ensure computational stability.
[0121] Step S104B: During the iteration process, calculate the residual between the currently estimated IGBT chip current distribution and the actual measurement data, and correct the residual according to the iteration step size parameter to dynamically update the IGBT chip current distribution until the residual meets the preset accuracy requirements.
[0122] During the iteration process, the estimated current distribution is dynamically corrected by calculating the residual between the current estimated value and the sensor measurement data. The residual reflects the difference between the estimated magnetic field strength and the actual measured value, and serves as the basis for judging whether the current estimate is close to the true solution. Based on the Land-Weber algorithm, the residual is corrected using the transpose of the magnetic flux density matrix and the step size parameter, gradually updating the chip current distribution. The result of each update serves as the input value for the next iteration, thus achieving iterative optimization. This iterative process continuously reduces the difference between the sensor measurement data and the estimated data, gradually approximating the true chip current distribution.
[0123] The iteration stops when the residual is less than the preset accuracy requirement or when the maximum number of iterations is reached. The final output chip current distribution is the solution result, which can accurately reflect the actual operating state of each IGBT chip. Through this process, the Land-Weber iterative method not only achieves efficient solutions for complex systems, but also overcomes the influence of noise and data interference, possessing high accuracy and stability, and providing a reliable basis for IGBT chip performance evaluation and optimization.
[0124] In summary, this application, through a non-invasive design, only requires the deployment of a measurement array composed of AMR magnetic sensors to detect the internal current distribution of press-fit IGBTs without damaging the device's packaging structure, thus avoiding the potential impact of traditional invasive detection methods on device performance and internal parameters.
[0125] Secondly, the relationship between the output signal of the magnetic sensor and the internal current of the press-fit IGBT is clear and unambiguous. Through algorithm processing based on the sensor output, the current distribution inside the press-fit IGBT can be directly and quickly deduced, and it has high measurement accuracy.
[0126] The technical solution of this application can obtain the working status of the press-fit IGBT relatively accurately, providing a reliable basis for the evaluation of the device's operating status. It also has the characteristics of non-invasiveness, high precision and ease of implementation, providing important technical support for the research and development and application of press-fit IGBT.
