PowerDevicesCharact​eristics

An interactive educational tool for visualizing the static V-I characteristics of power semiconductor devices with thermal and gate control.

You are now following this Submission

This interactive MATLAB App is designed for undergraduate and postgraduate Electrical Engineering students to bridge the gap between theoretical semiconductor physics and practical device behavior.
Key Features:
  • Interactive Physics: Real-time adjustment of Temperature (0–100°C) and Gate Input.
  • High-Fidelity Modeling: Visualizes Snap-back and PIV (SCR), Ohmic and Saturation regions (MOSFET/IGBT), and the exponential Knee-point (Diode).
  • Integrated Pedagogy: Features "Aha!" insights, core lessons, and a dynamic digital data sheet.
  • IEEE Drawn Schematics: Custom-rendered symbols help students correlate V-I curves with physical device terminals.
This app is an ideal companion for virtual laboratories, online teaching, and classroom demonstrations.
