650V TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 in TO-247 Housing with Excellent EMI Performance for High Humidity Industrial Applications

Infineon Technologies has released TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 technology in a discrete housing for industrial motor drives, power factor correction, photovoltaic and uninterruptible power supplies. The new TRENCHSTOP family portfolio consists of current ratings of 20 A, 30 A, 40 A, 50 A, and 75 A. It can easily be used for replacing previous technologies and for paralleling.  

TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 chip comes in a TO-247 with 650 V break down voltage. It has been designed on the new micro-pattern trench technology and performs with much lower static losses. Besides, it provides lower static losses and ten percent less on-state voltage for the same current class.

The IGBT T7 technology has a very low saturation voltage (V_CE(sat)) and is co-packed with an emitter controlled 7^th generation (EC7) diode, which provides for a 150 mV lower forward voltage (V_F) drop and improved reverse-recovery softness. This version of IGBT7 provides short circuit robustness, features superior controllability, and excellent EMI performance and can be easily adjusted to provide the application-specific best ratio of dv/dt and switching losses. The device has successfully passed the JEDEC based HV-H3TRB (High Voltage High Humidity High-Temperature Reverse Bias) test thereby proving ruggedness in high humidity industrial applications. The discrete 650 V TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 is available on the company page.
