Unipolar Arc Ignited Partial Discharge for 650-V AlGaN/GaN HEMTs during the DC Breakdown Voltage Measurement
2022
Overview
Without the Fluorinert solution and proper pad design, the high–voltage (HV) transistor used during the DC breakdown voltage (Vbk) measurement might be damaged by the partial discharge (PD) in the air if its Vbk is close to one thousand volts or more. From the waveform measurement, the PD in the air occurred at 650 V HV GaN HEMTs during the Vbk measurement, it is ignited by the unipolar arc, and it is not ignited by the avalanche breakdown. This is based on the fact that the current falls below zero ampere to become a negative current, and the voltage rises so that it is higher than the setting voltage of the DC meter at the onset of the PD, thus corresponding with the electrons, leaving the plasma to cathode, and enabling a build–in potential to exist in the plasma. Then, the PD ignites because the current starts to rise in order to allow for a positive spike current; the voltage level subsequently falls and a lower voltage reading is obtained.
