IGBT Inverter Stacks deliver up to 16MW power rating
With a power rating of up to 16MW, a range of IGBT phase leg stacks has been introduced by IXYS. The standard, three-level, press-pack IGBT phase leg stacks are available at 3 voltages - 3.3kV, 6.6kV and 10kV.
Two becomes one with high-isolation DC/DC converters
Richardson RFPD is offering availability and full design support capabilities for RECOM Power’s high-isolation DC-to-DC converters. Designed specifically for insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) systems, the converters' asymmetric outputs of +15V and -9V make them ideal to power IGBT drivers, replacing the need for two converters.
Optocouplers reduce board space & improve power efficiency
Designed for use in motor control and power inverter applications, the ACPL-336J and ACPL-337J optocouplers have been announced by Avago. Avago claim that the highly-integrated smart gate drive optocoupler devices reduce system costs and board space, whilst improving overall power efficiency and reliability.
PCIM Europe 2014 conference program revealed
PCIM Europe 2014 feature a diverse conference program: from a total of 269 abstracts, the conference directors have put together a comprehensive program covering the latest technological trends in power electronics components and systems.
Wafer processing facility opens in Singapore
International Rectifier have announced that they havecommenced initial production at its new state-of-the-art ultra-thin wafer processing facility in Singapore (IRSG).
Rugged IGBTs suit snubberless hard-switching designs
Expanding its 650V XPT IGBT product portfolio, IXYS has announced new IGBTs with current ratings of 16-200A. Supporting switching frequencies up to 60 kHz, the devices are targeted at applications including power inverters, uninterruptible power supplies, switch-mode power supplies, power factor correction circuits, battery chargers, welding machines, lamp ballasts, and E-Bikes.
Solderable top side improves power cycling capabilities
Designed to improve the power cycling capabilities of power modules, top side solderable metallization has been introduced by IXYS on 200A and 300A, 650V Trench XPTTM IGBT silicon dies. Solderable top side replaces standard bond wire connections by using the standard soldering process, thereby improving power cycling capability and increasing the surge current capabilities of the dies.
Packaging power for the next generation
The concept of hybrid and electric vehicles is far from new, but the challenges in the ascendance of the latest generation require new solutions. By Benjamin Jackson Senior Manager, Automotive Power Switch & Power Module, Product Management & Business Development, with International Rectifier.
Bond wireless building blocks provide a new approach to power modules
The Hybrid Electric Vehicle is bringing new challenges and opportunities for power semiconductor packaging, in particular those without bond wires. Here we discuss how using discrete bond wireless building blocks in the CooliR2DIE approach can be used to develop a complete module. By Ben Jackson, Senior Manager, Automotive Power Switch & Power Module Product Management & Business Development, for International Rectifier.
