To address the issue of low accuracy of the loss model of Si/SiC hybrid switch composed of SiC MOSFET and Si IGBT in parallel under varying driving parameters, a loss modeling approach based on driving parameters is proposed. Firstly, the transient process of the Si/SiC hybrid switch is analyzed in segments under two typical switching sequences. Then, a loss model is constructed based on the driving voltage and driving resistance. Finally, experimental platform for double pulse test and steady-state parameter measurement was built. The accuracy of the model is verified under different driving resistances, different load currents and different driving voltages. The experimental results show that the fitting degrees for turn-on and turn-off loss models under the switching pattern Ⅰ reached 97.61% and 99.20%, respectively, while those under switching pattern Ⅱ were 97.83% and 97.66%, respectively.
