High-power, low-inductive power modules
Vincotech, a supplier of module-based solutions for power electronics, has rolled out a new set of products for UPS and solar applications. These flowMNPC 4w 2nd gen. modules come in flowSCREW 4w housings and feature MNPC topology. The 400 A and 600 A devices have been equipped with a different class of 1200 V and 650 V IGBT and diodes to improve efficiency and optimize inverters. These products are also available with a thermal interface made of phase-change material (PCM).
Mitsubishi's latest 6.1 generation IGBTs and diodes in the half-bridge path, paired with 650 V class semiconductors in the neutral clamp path, improve the flowMNPC 4w 2nd gen. modules' utility in the target applications. Featuring a power PCB design, the modules' commutation inductance is very low so that they do not need snubber capacitors. The thickness of phase-change material (PCM) printed on the modules' base plates have been optimized to improve power systems' thermal performance. Samples of the enhanced flowMNPC 4w 2nd gen are available on request.
