Page 38: Power Losses
IM393 Application note IM393 IPM Technical Description Thermal design Power losses The total power losses in the IM393-XX are composed of conduction and switching losses in the IGBTs and diodes. The loss during the turn-off steady state can be ignored, as it is very low and has little effect on increasing the temperature in the device.

IM393 Application note IM393 IPM Technical Description Thermal design 7.2.2 Switching losses Different devices have different switching characteristics, and vary according to the handled voltage/current and operating temperature/frequency. However, the turn-on/off energy loss (joule) can be experimentally measured, indirectly, by integrating power over time where power is obtained by multiplying the current and voltage, under a given circumstance.
