In addition to solar and drive applications, the portfolio is also tailored for commercial, construction and agricultural vehicles (CAV) as well as for uninterruptible power supply (UPS) inverters. Based on the new micro-pattern trench technology, the EconoDUAL 3 with the TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 chip performs with much lower static losses compared to the modules with an IGBT4 chipset. Additionally, its on-state voltage is reduced by up to 30 percent for the same chip area. This brings significant loss reduction in applications, especially for industrial drives, which usually operate at moderate switching frequencies. The oscillation behavior and the controllability of the IGBT have been improved. Additionally, the new power modules feature a maximum overload junction temperature of 175°C. The new chip dimensions enable optimization of the module layout to reduce switching losses. As a result, the switching losses for the 600 A module are reduced by up to 24 percent compared to the former generation. This leads in a simplified design-in for applications with higher switching frequency. Furthermore, all features can be implemented in the same footprint facilitating the upgrade of existing inverter system designs. With the extended 750 A and 900 A versions, the EconoDUAL 3 package addresses an improved inverter power range. In addition, the PressFIT housing enables a fast and cost- efficient assembly. Availability The 1200 V TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 EconoDUAL™ 3 portfolio can be ordered now. Variants with pre-applied TIM will also be available soon.

connector being considered as attractive as the single-row version.” For its remarkably compact-sized – CF1/CF2 connector family, Panasonic Industry resorts to a unique metal terminal connection structure, making the direct connection between the FPC and the board possible, overcoming poor assembly workability of wire harnesses. Suitable for automotive applications that require shock, vibration and a 125°C heat resistance, the connector’s double-sided contact and inertial lock structure prevent incomplete mating and thus guarantee the utmost operational reliability. Next to its obvious and highly relevant automotive applications, the CF1/CF2 connectors will also be a modern connector option for non-automotive purposes such as lighting applications, energy storage systems and many more. Key features: For Automotive Applications,125 °C heat resistance Anti-misoperation bridge structure prevents unintended operation of mating lock Contact reliability is preserved by double-sided contact structure Inertia lock construction prevents half-mating Weight and process cost reduction

Flexibility meets increased power density and performance: Infineon enhances 1200 V EconoDUAL™ 3 portfolio with IGBT7 featuring new current ratings Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) launches newcurrent ratings for its EconoDUAL™3 portfolio with TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 chips.
