Basic requirements for switching devices Closed state: connection of two conductors with least possible losses, i.e. smallest resistance possible Open state: best isolation of both conductors possible, i.e. highest resistance and dielectric strength possible switching state: quick and reversible transfer from one state to the other without generating too high over voltages (not to exceed the insulation limits) 3 3 Switching Principles electromechanical Solid state Change conductivity of switching device by replacing of a very well conducting medium with a very well isolating one, and vice versa: Metal contact – arc plasma – isolating medium (e.g. gas, air) Change conductivity of switching device by controlled change of the conductivity of a medium remaining in the current path Ω-1m-1) σ (Ω Electrical conductivity of nitrogen at atmospheric pressure T (1000 K) MOSFET transfer characteristic 4 4 Electromechanics vs. Solid-State Classics - prejudices electromechanical Solid-state • • • • • • • • • • • Electromechanics is dying out Too slow interruption Too sensitive (vibrations) Too old-fashioned Too noisy Not precise enough Standards are electromechanic centric • … Too expensive Too hot Too big No proper isolation – leakage current • No auxiliary contacts • Doesn’t meet the standards • Promises are not being kept – technology development not fast enough (SiC) • … To overcome these prejudices: Do not expect the solid-state solutions to behave like traditional electromechanical ones and vice versa. 5 5 Electromechanics vs. Solid-State Characteristic Life Power loss Size Electromechanical switches 0 Semiconductor switches ++ + + ---- Cost Safe interruption + ++ Visible open position Frequency of operation + 0 ++ Freedom from maintenance 0 ++ Reliability Breaking capacity 0 + + Susceptibility to overvoltage + Voltage drop Logic Connection + -- - + Multiplicity of functions 0 + Electromagnetic compatibility Interference ++ + Effects on environment Sensitivity to vibrations Power amplification + + ++ 0 Key to ratings 0 = satisfactgory + = good + + = very good - = unfavorable - - = very unfavorable Are characteristics measured in same units (e.g. life)?
