Infineon extends 1200V IGBT portfolio
62 mm IGBT7 range now comes with with 800A maximum current rating
Infineon is introducing a 62mm half-bridge and common emitter module portfolio with 1200V TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 chips. This extends the range of IGBT offerings in a 62mm housing with a new 800A maximum current class.
Based on the new micro-pattern trench technology, the 62mm module family with the 1200V TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 chip has significantly lower static losses compared to the modules with the IGBT4 chipset, according to Infineon. This results in significant loss reduction in applications, especially in industrial drives that typically operate at moderate switching frequencies.
The IGBT’s oscillation behaviour and controllability have also been improved. In addition, the new power modules feature a maximum overload junction temperature of 175°C.
A solid, nickel-coated copper baseplate and screw main terminals ensure the high mechanical robustness of the 62mm module housing. The main terminals are located in the centre of the housing, making them well suited for parallel circuits and 3-level configurations due to the low inductive DC link connection.
Unchanged standard package design and dimensions within the module family support mechanical compatibility with the previous module version. In addition, all modules are available with Infineon’s proven pre-applied thermal interface material (TIM).
