In the used DC link design of the resulting losses (Eon and Eoff) differ from the datasheet values given by Infineon. Why are the losses different?

Hi MonacoFranz,
Different losses between application and data sheet can be resulting from
- differences in the DC link leakage inductance. The different leakage inductance may result in lower overvoltage shoot at turn-off and this will influence the Eoff and/or in a lower voltage drop at turn-on and this will influence the Eon.
- different Rgon or Rgoff values resulting in different switching speeds at turn-on and/or turn-off. The differences in di/dt will result in different overvoltages at turn-off. Or if the di/dt is higher at turn-on in a higher voltage drop, resulting in a lower Eon.
Regards
