1 Introduction to the Project

1.1 Project Background

1.1.1 Product Introduction

Railway vehicles electronic accessories mainly include gate turn off thyristor (GTO), insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), integrated gate controlled thyristor (IGCT), high power diode, capacitor, reactor, etc. Electronic accessories are important components of railway vehicles, which play a very key role in normal operation of railway vehicles.

1.1.2 Market Prospects

As one new transportation method of modern society, rapid transit railway is safe, rapid, economic, environment friendly and other extremely obvious advantages. According to Middle and Long-term Railway Network Development Planning of Ministry of Railways, by 2012, Chinese railway operation mileage will reach more than 110,000km, "four-horizontal and four-vertical" special line of transit will be basically established. China will have established 100,000km of rapid transit railway transit network, and total demand of CRH will reach 4,500-5,000 trains. By around 2015, China's 19 large-scale cities will plan to construct 70 rail transit lines with total length of about 2,100km and total investment of over 800 billion yuan. China will become the largest railway and urban rail transit market in the world. At that time, market demand for railway vehicles electronic accessories will also greatly increase, so the market prospects are optimistic.

Viewed from the analysis of IGBT, it is the power device of railway vehicles electronic accessories, which is one kind of the newest product and main stream development direction in the future of power device. IGBT device is consisted of MOSFET and bipolar transistor, the existing power MOSFET is easy to be driven and simple to be controlled, switching frequency is high. In addition, power transistor has low break-over voltage, big on state voltage and small loss, therefore, high-speed transit market has enormous demand potential for power transistor. At present, IGBT module with large power has become the necessary component of electric locomotive and CRH. According to the calculation, electric locomotive should generally have 500 IGBT modules, CRH should exceed 100 IGBT modules, and one section of metro should have 50-80 IGBT modules. It can be predicted that, the market demand for IGBT every year only in high-speed rail field can reach 300 million yuan.

IEGT is developed on the basis of IGBT, having very similar structure as IGBT, the difference is that IEGT has wider gate pole. IEGT is a new type of device that integrates the advantages of GTO and IGBT, which is featured by low break-over voltage, high operating frequency, driven by voltage-type gate pole, wide safe working area and easy application in series connection. IEGT adopts enhanced injection structure to realize low on state voltage, enabling high capacity electronic devices to get marked development. Trench structure and parallel connection with multi-chip and self-current sharing of IEGT enable it to have considerable potential in further expansion of voltage capacity. In addition, module packaging can provide numerous derivative products, which are expected to be widely applied in medium and large capacity converters as well as electronic equipment of railway vehicles.

The high-speed railway, as a new transport mode in the modern society, it has some remarkable advantages in some aspects such as safety, rapidness, economy and environmental protection, etc. There will have been 70 railways planned and built in 19 big cities of our country, with the total length of about 2100km and the total investment of more than 800 billion yuan and China will have become the largest railway and urban rail vehicles market in the world by 2015. By then, the demand for railway vehicle electronic accessories will have been greatly increased in the market. The construction of the project just meets the demand in the market, so it is very necessary.

1.1.3 Technical Analysis

As rapid development of science and technology, railway vehicles electronic accessories have been constantly perfected and improved. Take IGBT that has had the fastest development in recent years as example, through near 20 years of development, IGBT has owned short circuit resistance and eliminated "secondary breakdown" phenomenon and current latching phenomenon, and achieved tremendous progress in reduction of break-over voltage drop, decrease of gate charge, increase of switching speed and diminution of switching loss, and greatly enhanced its performance. In the recent 20 years, IGBT has experienced five generations of development courses, in which the fifth generation IGBT adopts three kinds of key technology on the basis of trench IGBT. By means of a series of advanced technology, the device's on state loss has been approximately to the level of bipolar device. Trench IGBT is the structure usually adopted in the devices with high withstand voltage and large current, which can avoid large quantity of electrode lead in the module, reducing lead inductance and increasing the reliability. It can be known from the development process of IGBT that, railway vehicles electronic accessories are being developed to have composite type, module, high capacity and high operating frequency.

Among railway vehicles electronic accessories, a good proportion of electronic devices are made of silicon semiconductor materials, and new types of compound semiconductor materials with excellent performance have appeared in recent years, such as GaAs, SiC, InP and SiGe, and the electronic devices made of these basic materials are being constantly developed. SiC is the most mature wide band gap semiconductor material, which has, compared with other semiconductor materials, physical features of high forbidden band width, high saturation electronic drift velocity, high breakdown strength, low dielectric constant and high heat conductivity, the operating temperature can reach 600℃. PN junction withstand voltage is easy to reach 5kV-10kV, having very small leakage current. Therefore, SiC is an extremely ideal material in the application places with high temperature, high frequency and high power. The research and development of SiC device will become one major trend in the future. However, the development speed of SiC device is restrained by the completeness of SiC material, furthermore there are lots of problems to be solved in mechanism, theory and manufacturing technology of SiC material and power device, it will take 5-10 years to enable power SiC device to be generally used. In addition, semiconductor element made from GaAs or InP material has better high temperature resistance and higher heat conductivity, it also has extremely broad development prospect. Meeting the higher requirements of new generation of electronic device and system for device performance with new materials is another major trend of the future development of railway vehicles electronic accessories.
