The Problem Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) in AC motor drive Fast switching currents in insulated gate bi-polar transistor (IGBT) module PCB coupling paths to the cables and motor Causes device failure Meet government limits Costly to diagnose late in design cycle COUPLING PATH Cables IGBT
Objectives Create a circuit model (SPICE) of the EMI coupling paths in the drive including: the IGBT package (L and C) the cables and motor measurements and modeling Shielded & unshielded cable Ferrites Document and demonstrate the processes involved for EMC design Demonstrate mitigation opportunities for EMC design and discovery
IGBT Modeling • Intended current paths • Shown in schematic • Non-intended current paths • Parasitic values determined by device geometry • Capacitance • Inductance
IGBT Capacitance Modeling • Area fill to heat sink • Parallel plate capacitor model • Area fill to area fill • <10% of smallest area fill to heat sink capacitance • Constructed regions in CST Microwave Studio
IGBT Measurement C = 39.4 pF
IGBT Capacitance Modeling • Measurements consistent with simulations • Error caused by additional parasitics to other regions
IGBT Inductance Modeling • Phase leg loop total inductance values desired • Simulation results to be placed in equivalent circuit
IGBT Inductance Measurement L=13.3nH
IGBT Inductance Simulation and Verification Simulated 13.1nH Measured 13.3nH

Motor and Cable Measurements • Built test setup for measurements • Impedance Analyzer • Network Analyzer • Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) • Determine transmission line model of cable • Create high frequency model of motor • Characterize effectiveness of ferrites
Motor Model • Initially modeled motor as capacitor • Poor data fit • Used high frequency model from Schinkel et. al. • Took common and differential mode measurements
