XML file for SKiiP 23AC12T7V1 IGBT device in PSIM for thermal analysis

Jeroen Trachet

Hello,

We are developing a PMSM motor drive and we would like to do some thermal analysis.

Would it be possible to make a .xml for in the PcdEditor of our 6-pack IGBT module SKiiP 23AC12T7V1 from Semikron?
Datasheet of our IGBT module:
https://www.semikron-danfoss.com/dl/service-support/downloads/download/semikron-datasheet-skiip-23ac12t7v1-25232150.pdf

Best regards,

Jeroen

Hello, i added all the datasheet information but when i try to run my simulation, i get this error:

"Error: The gate resistance in the Eon_Ic test conditions is 0"

i can't acces the tab "other test conditions" in the PcdEditor

I added my .xml in the attachment

Hi, Jeroen,

Please enter the correct Rg value in the device database:

Yes, you may enter the datasheet values into PSIM's "Device Database Editor" to create a xml file for your device.

In PSIM, please click "Help" and you will find the tutorial files and video tutorial links.

For your question, please click "Help >> Video Tutorials >> Overview and Getting Started >> Introduction to the Thermal Module".
