International Rectifier offers insulated gate bipolar transistors for ultra-fast switching
International Rectifier
IRGP4067DPbF and IRGP4066DPbF
International Rectifier has expanded its range of trench insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) with the IRGP4067DPbF and IRGP4066DPbF, which are meant for uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), solar, industrial motor and welding applications.
According to the company, the IRGP4067DPbF and IRGP4066DPbF utilise thin-wafer technology to offer lower conduction and switching losses.
Co-packaged with a soft-recovery low Qrr diode, the devices are designed for ultra-fast switching (8–30KHz) with 5us short-circuit rating and feature low Vce(on) and positive Vce(on) temperature coefficients, to aid parallelling.
Offered as both die and packaged devices, and available with or without short-circuit rating, other key features of the IGBTs include a maximum junction temperature of 175°C and low EMI, for improved reliability.
