Infineon – Easy with TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7—Higher power density and optimised switching
Infineon’s new 1200V TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 and EC7 diode technology is based on latest micro-pattern trenches technology which provide strongly reduced losses and offer a high level of controllability.
The chip is specially optimized for industrial drives applications, which means much lower static losses, higher power density and softer switching. Additionally, by raising the allowed maximum operation temperature up to 175°C in the power module, an increase of the output current of up to 40% can be obtained.
Features
– Lowest on state voltage VCE(sat) and Vf
– Tvj op=175°C at overload
– Enhanced controllability of dv/dt
– Optimized switching losses for dv/dt = 5kV/μs
– 8μs short-circuit robustness
– Improved FWD softness
