Training and Knowledge Transfer
We offer training programs covering the full spectrum of power semiconductor technology, helping engineering teams build the knowledge required to develop cutting edge power devices.
A particular focus of our training portfolio are TCAD simulations. We support our customers in establishing efficient simulation workflows covering the complete chain from process- to static and dynamic device simulations. Our objective is to maximize simulation efficiency, enabling engineers to obtain valuable insights in a short time.
Our main philosophy is to use simulations as engineering tools for developing a deep understanding of device behavior rather than simply generating results. As part of this approach, we train our custommers to use various tricks to quickly solve problems which initially appear unsolvable using simulations. In our traning sessions we use examples from real-world problems to demonstrate how simulations can be used in an innovative way.
Training Topics
- Power semiconductor device physics
- TCAD process and device simulation
- Interaction between semiconductor devices and power electronic systems
- Packaging technologies and package-related effects
- Reliability engineering and reliability testing
- Project management for power semiconductor development
- Industry standards, qualification requirements, and best practices
The slides below illustrate a typical training module covering the IGBT turn-off process in detail. These examples serve as a foundation for discussing more advanced topics such as dv/dt control, switching losses, turn-off softness, oscillation mechanisms, and the interaction between device design and application behavior.
