dual-pulse dynamic testing platform and three key features


The PD-200X dual-pulse dynamic testing platform developed and produced by Lygao Jiechuang Instruments offers high cost-performance, high stability and versatility, and features modular intelligent design

offers excellent instrument compatibility with probes, high redundancy safety ensures the safety of high-voltage and high-current testing devices and personnel, making this system currently the most cost-effective

dual-pulse testing system, especially suitable for universities, research institutes, and startup semiconductor companies

Through the PD-200X dynamic testing platform, the performance and reliability of IGBT/MOSET devices can be evaluated, and the driver circuits and thermal design

can be optimized

improves system efficiency and reliability. The dual-pulse testing method used on the platform is widely used in fields such as frequency converters, electric vehicles, and renewable energy power generation

2. Hardware device configuration

Basic configuration:

1. Pulse generator

supports single pulse, dual pulse, adjustable 0.5~200μS, optical fiber and BNC outputs selectable, and safety control via host computer software

2. High-voltage power supply

provides the DC voltage required for testing, with a maximum operating voltage of up to 1200V, expandable to 1700V, and integrates a charge-discharge circuit

3. High-performance SiC digital drivers

gate voltage manually adjustable in six levels, -5V~+18V; Compatible with almost all brands of optical isolation probe interfaces on the market, such as Tektek, PMK, Zhiyong, etc

supports differential probes of all brands

4. Adjustable load inductors AirC100 series

independently designed hollow inductors with high linearity, easy connection with taps, and five manual adjustable inductance levels: 10uH, 20uH, 50uH, 100uH, and 200uH

5. Safety protective box

360° visual explosion-proof box, integrated system equipment to ensure safety protection for both equipment and personnel, newly upgraded intelligent safety alarms and voltage reduction triggers

Optional equipment:

6. High-definition digital oscilloscope

This system is compatible with all brands of oscilloscopes on the market. The high-end version can optionally include the IWATSU Japan Iwasaki DS-8000 series 12-bit HD oscilloscope

7. Signal acquisition probe

There are mainly four types of front-end acquisition probes: high-CMRR optical isolation probes measure Vgs, high-voltage differential probes measure Vds, and high-frequency inductive resistors can be paired with Roche coils to measure Id

High-end configuration case: Testing the FireFly® series optical isolation probe (1.5GHz high frequency, DC-180dB) recommended by PMK for VGS

For Vds testing, PMK's Bumblebee high-voltage differential probe (400MHz) is recommended; For ID testing, the recommended American T&M inductive coaxial shunt (400MHz~2GHz)

is recommended

can be equipped with IWATSU Iwasaki Roche coils (optional high temperature resistance up to 150°C, finest wire diameter 1mm).

For mid- to low-end configurations, consider using domestically produced Zhixong optical isolation and high-voltage differential probes. Roche coils can use British PEM, allowing users to select according to budget and performance requirements

8. Heating Option (TO-247 Package).

The PD-200X integrated single-tube heating fixture is easy to use, safe, and reliable, supporting multiple temperature environments such as maximum temperatures up to 175°C


3. Three major system features:

1. Heating equipment

Jiechuang Instruments' patented product—device heating fixture, supports TO-247 package, easy and stable plug-and-pull, enables rapid heating (from room temperature to maximum temperature in just over 10 minutes).

Both the host and the PC host computer can be set up. In addition to common settings like 125°C, 150°C, 175°C, etc., any temperature from room temperature ~175°C can also be set

meets various application testing needs
