摘要
In this paper, several power cycling tests under single or combined test conditions were undertaken to investigate the applicability of linear cumulative damage theory in the lifetime prediction of power semiconductor devices. The validity of this theory was verified by an experimental method for one lifetime limit, which is an increase of forward voltage at load current by 5%. The corresponding failure mechanism is the degradation of bond wire contacts.
