IGBT modules are newcomers in the semiconductor field. Their characteristics research includes static characteristics research and dynamic characteristics research. Static characteristics can often be obtained from datasheets, while dynamic characteristics need to be measured manually.

[0003] In the current national standards and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standards, the measurement of dynamic characteristics is based on double pulse testing, which reflects the dynamic characteristics by measuring the voltage Vce and current Ic waveforms during the dynamic process.

Commonly used oscilloscopes are four-channel detection devices. The one-to-one detection of a single channel limits the number of internal units of the IGBT module that can be tested simultaneously by the test equipment; therefore, the total number of control detection channels determines the number of oscilloscopes for detecting signal processing instruments, thereby controlling the size and cost of the detection equipment; at the same time, imported coaxial relays are expensive, have a long procurement cycle, and are difficult to maintain after sales.
