Analysis of solid state relay solutions based on different semiconductor technologies

Abstract: This paper provides an analysis on the design, implementation and operation of Bi-Directional Switches (BDS) based on power semiconductor devices intended to replace Electro Mechanical Relays (EMR) in home appliances. Static and dynamic characterizations of test vehicles developed using different power device semiconductor technologies (TRIAC, Super Junction (SJ) MOSFET, IGBT…) are presented. At this time, emerging Gallium Nitride High Electron Mobility Transistors (GaN HEMTs) seem to be very suitable for the … Show more

“…In order to handle mains voltages (typically between 110 V and 240 V AC), the electronic controller must employ some form of electric isolation and it must provide ways to deal with voltage spikes when powerful inductive loads are turned off. The topic is well researched [71,72], and in this case, there are two possible solutions: classic relays or solid-state relays (SSRs) based on triodes for alternating current (TRIACs). In both cases, the implementation must consider the presence of mains voltages on the PCB [73].…”

“…The Dual-Thyristor SSR topology for AC power system remains the same during these decades [3]. Although new topology with newer semiconductor types used the Super Junction MOSFET, the topology still needed dual semiconductors to control each half cycle of the AC waveform separately [4]. There are many disadvantages associated with pre-successor topology, for example the loud switching noises will cause un-similar dual control signals.…”
