Abstract(E)This paper investigates how optimized accelerated testing methodologies can reduce validation timeframes for power electronics in electric vehicle development. Current OEM approaches utilizing Power-Thermal-Cycle-Endurance and High-Temperature-Operation-Endurance protocols require >6-month validation cycles, conflicting with 2-year EV production timelines. Laboratory data reveals limitations applying conventional power cycling to GaN-based OBCs and SiC DC-DC converters, where standard Coffin-Manson models show reduced applicability. Analysis of physics-of-failure approaches and mission profile-oriented strategies demonstrates potential timeframe reductions. Results indicate properly configured accelerated aging tests incorporating junction temperature swing control and realistic switching conditions maintain reliability assessment accuracy while significantly accelerating validation processes for modern automotive power electronics.

How to use the search box

You can enter up to 5 search conditions. The number of search boxes can be increased or decreased with the "+" and "-" buttons on the right.
If you enter multiple words separated by spaces in one search box, the data that "contains all" of the entered words will be searched (AND search).
Example) X (space) Y → "X and Y (including)"

How to use "AND" and "OR" pull-down

If "AND" is specified, the "contains both" data of the phrase entered in the previous and next search boxes will be searched. If you specify "OR", the data that "contains" any of the words entered in the search boxes before and after is searched.
Example) X AND Y → "X and Y (including)"  X OR Z → "X or Z (including)"
If AND and OR searches are mixed, OR search has priority.
Example) X AND Y OR Z → X AND (Y OR Z)
If AND search and multiple OR search are mixed, OR search has priority.
Example) W AND X OR Y OR Z → W AND (X OR Y OR Z)

How to use the search filters

Use the "search filters" when you want to narrow down the search results, such as when there are too many search results. If you check each item, the search results will be narrowed down to only the data that includes that item.
The number in "()" after each item is the number of data that includes that item.
