Abstract: Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs have become foundational to high-density power converters, yet their long-term reliability is limited by gate-oxide degradation and thermo-mechanical fatigue. Accurate, real-time estimation of the junction temperature (Tj) is essential for condition monitoring; however, direct in situ measurement is practically unfeasible. While purely data-driven machine learning approaches have been proposed for sensorless Tj estimation, they inherently lack domain knowledge, leading to poor generalization under dynamic load profiles and a high rate of false positive fault detections. This paper proposes a novel sensorless electro-thermal monitoring framework utilizing Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). By embedding the governing electro-thermal dynamic equations of the SiC device—specifically the transient thermal impedance network and coupled power loss models—directly into the neural network's loss function, the model is constrained by physical laws rather than relying on training data alone. The proposed PINN utilizes only standard, non-intrusive operational variables, including phase current, DC-link voltage, and coolant temperature, to accurately predict Tj. Validation results demonstrate that the physics-guided framework successfully decouples normal load-induced thermal transients from the progressive thermal shifts indicative of physical degradation. This approach not only provides high-fidelity, real-time Tj estimation but does so while actively preventing the false alarms prevalent in traditional black-box health monitoring systems, offering a highly reliable, sensorless predictive maintenance solution for next-generation power electronics.
