IXYS UK Westcode introduces a new 3kA, 4.5kV press-pack IGBT PRESS RELEASE
●IXYS UK Westcode Ltd. announces the launch of a new 4.5kV press-pack IGBT. The new asymmetric blocking device with a continuous DC rating of 2.8kV has a record breaking DC current rating of 3000A and repetitive peak collector current of 6000A . IXYS believe this new device to be the highest genuine current rating press-pack IGBT available today on the open market, breaking new ground in power handling capacity of a single device. The new device is only possible due to IXYS UK’s long experience in manufacturing and deep understanding of the principles of very large press-pack IGBTs with multiple parallel die .
●The new 4.5kV devices incorporate proven SPT plus die technology and are constructed using fifty two parallel connected IGBT die, 10 more than the largest established part with current rating of 2400A at the same 4.5kV blocking voltage. Each die is 14.3 mm square with an active area of approximately one centimetre squared.The new device is encapsulated in fully hermetic 26mm thick with a 132mm electrode diameter, larger than the established 2400A device, but maintain the same 170mm overall diameter as the forty two die design; This gives an effective 25% more current rating in the same package envelope
●The robust internal construction is bond free with the individual die directly pressure contacted through metallic pressure plates to the external copper electrodes. The direct bond free contact ensures highest reliability and unrivalled thermal cycling properties, far exceeding those of a conventionally packaged plastic package module. Package design is based on IXYS UK’s well established and proven technology, with the same advantages of enhanced rupture capability, resisting more than ten times the short circuit energy of a conventional plastic packaged module device and the additional advantage that the device is virtually guaranteed to fail to a stable short circuit. These unique properties make the new device an ideal solution where high reliability, maximum power density and predictable failure are important.
