Impact of the Physical Layout of High-Current Rectifiers on Current Division and Magnetic Field Using PEEC Method

摘要

This paper addresses some problems linked to the physical layout of high-current rectifiers: paralleling components, magnetic field close to the rectifier, and also the validation of the physical layout at reduced current. Even if the impact of cabling stray inductance is well known, some new tools and methodology are available today to design quicker and safer physical layout of such high-current rectifiers.
