Integrated IGBT Devices Optimized for Green Power, E-Mobility, Data Centers
The new IGBT 7 devices developed by Microchip Technology meet the increasing demands for higher efficiency, smaller size, and greater performance in high-growth market segments such as sustainability, E-mobility, and data centers. The devices integrate high-performance IGBTs with other essential power components to simplify designs and provide efficient, cost-effective solutions for power applications in solar inverters, hydrogen ecosystems, commercial and agricultural vehicles, and More Electric Aircraft (MEA).
Available in a wide range of packages, multiple topologies, and current and voltage ranges, IGBT 7 devices feature lower on-state IGBT voltage (VCE) and improved antiparallel diode (lower VF). In addition, increased current capability can enable lower power losses, higher power density, and higher system efficiency.
For motor-control applications where enhanced controllability of dv/dt is important, the IGBT 7 devices are designed to offer freewheeling softness for efficient, smooth, and optimized driving of switches. These high-performance devices also aim to improve system reliability, reduce EMI, and minimize voltage spikes.
The series’ lower-inductance packages, combined with the higher overload capability at Tvj −175°C, make these devices well-suited as options for creating rugged and high-reliability aviation and defense applications—such as propulsion, actuation and power distribution—at a lower system cost.
