Powerex QID3320004 Attains UL Recognition
This Dual IGBT HVIGBT module makes use of the latest Mitsubishi R-Series chip technology, which offers lower losses, a more rugged SWSOA and RRSOA, and a higher current handling capability as compared to previous generations of chip technology. Highly insulated housings offer enhanced protection by means of greater creepage and stri...

Acoustically Mapping IGBT Module Solder Thickness
Previously, a Power Electronics Technology article titled “Inverted Acoustic System Cuts IGBT Failures” (September 2011) examined the use of an acoustic microscope to image heat-blocking defects such as voids and non-bonds in the solder typically used to bond a heat sink to the bottom side of an IGBT module. Finding these defects makes...

IGBT Module Driver
Now available from MicroPower Direct, the IGD1205W is a hybrid integrated circuit specifically designed to drive N-channel IGBT modules. It provides the I/O isolation, high speed, drive voltage stability and fault protection required to control most MOS gated power devices. They are offered at very low cost. The IGD1205W converts TT...

IGBT Module Handles 600 A At 650 V
A high power phase-leg in the SimBus-F outline from IXYS Corporation handles 600 A and 650 V. The performance of the discrete 650 Volt XPT Trench IGBT products is now also available in module outlines, up to 600 Amperes with the IXYS fast "Sonic" diodes. The XPT IGBT and Sonic diode are designed for parallel operation in high power mod...
