| Abstract: |
Presents a study in which conventional reverse-recovery circuits were developed to test rectifiers with reverse-recovery times (tRR). Need for measuring techniques for accurately characterization and modeling of the high-power rectifier reverse-recovery process; Proposal of a test circuit topology; Use of the circuit to study two-dimensional (2-D) mixed device physics of the reverse-recovery process. |
