With the development of China’s electric power, power electronics devices such as insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) have been widely used in the field of high voltages and large currents. However, the currents in these power electronic devices are transient. For example, the uneven currents and internal chip currents overshoot, which may occur when turning on and off, and could have a great impact on the device. In order to study the reliability of these power electronics devices, this paper proposes a miniature printed circuit board (PCB) Rogowski coil that measures the current of these power electronics devices without changing their internal structures, which provides a reference for the subsequent reliability of their designs.

Through Hole

Thermal methods of quality control of the plated-through hole (PTH) of printed circuit board (PCB) are based on thermal models. However, known thermal models of PTH take no account of heat transfer to PCB material thus not allowing for PTH heat characteristic tying up with adhesion quality. In this work, an axisymmetric thermal model of a single-layer PCB PTH under one-sided heating conditions is considered. It was shown that the ratio of the temperature increments of the upper (heated) and lower end of the PTH in the considered range of heating power does not depend on the power level. A linear thermal equivalent scheme of the PTH has been proposed, which includes the longitudinal thermal resistance of the PTH metallization, de-termined by the parameters and quality of the metallization layer, the thermal resistance, which determines the convection heat exchange between the ends of the PTH with the adjacent PCB surface and the environment, and the thermal resistance of the area of the PCB material adjacent to the PTH, depending on the quality of the metallization adhesion and the PCB dielectric. Thermal equivalent circuit parameters determined by the ratio of the temperature increment of the upper and lower ends of the PTH and their difference can serve as the basis for the development of a nondestructive inspection procedure for PTH quality control by way of its unilateral heating, for example, by a laser beam.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present and discuss the results of measurements illustrating influence of the area of a thermal pad and the kind of the used base on thermal and optical parameters of LED modules. Design/methodology/approach LED modules including six power LEDs are designed. In the layout of these modules, different areas of a thermal pad of each LED are used. These modules are made using the classical FR-4 base and metal core printed circuit board (MCPCB). Thermal and optical parameters of all the tested modules are measured using the method elaborated by the authors. Findings The obtained results of measurements prove that increasing the area of a thermal pad causes a decrease in thermal resistance of the tested LED modules and an increase in power density of the emitted light. The role of the area of a thermal pad is more important for the classical FR-4 base than for MCPCB. Research limitations/implications Investigations were performed for only two values of the area of thermal pads and selected values of LEDs forward current. Originality/value The presented results of investigations show how the used layout and type of the used base of these modules influence optical and thermal parameters of LED modules. Changing the base of a module can cause even a double decrease in thermal resistance and a double increase in power density of the emitted light.
