  • Patent number: 11143691
    Abstract: The radiated noise of a semiconductor device is conveniently evaluated, and the radiated noise of an apparatus equipped with the semiconductor device is estimated. An evaluation method and an evaluation apparatus are provided, including: causing a semiconductor device to perform a switching operation; measuring voltage variation occurring between main terminals of the semiconductor device during the switching operation; and outputting an evaluation benchmark for radiated noise of the semiconductor device based on the voltage variation. The outputting the evaluation benchmark may include calculating the voltage variation in the semiconductor device for each frequency component as the evaluation benchmark.
