IXYS 650V XPT™ High Speed Trench IGBTs

Moreover these IGBTs have square Reverse Bias Safe Operating Areas (RBSOA) up to the breakdown voltage of 650V, making them ideal for snubber-less hard-switching applications. Other qualities include a positive collector-to-emitter voltage temperature coefficient which enables designers to use multiple devices in parallel to meet high current requirements and low gate charges which help reduce gate drive requirements and switching losses.

Thanks to its speed and 'soft recovery' characteristics, the co-packed Sonic-FRD™ diode is an ideal match for these XPT IGBTs in reducing turn-on and turn-off losses. It is optimized to suppress ringing oscillations and voltage spikes in recovery, thereby producing smooth switching waveforms and significantly lowering electromagnetic interference (EMI) in the process. The temperature stability of its forward voltage also helps lower switching losses when devices are operated in parallel. The IGBTs are well-suited for a wide variety of power conversion applications, including lighting control, battery chargers, motor drives, power inverters, power factor correction circuits, switch-mode power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies, E-Bikes, and welding machines.
