IGBT Power Modules in Redesigned INT-A-PAK Package Reduce Conduction and Switching Losses
15 March 2024 
Built on Trench IGBT technology, their latest IGBT power modules claim to offer offer designers a choice of two best in class technologies — low VCE(ON) or low Eoff — to lower conduction or switching losses in high current inverter stages for transportation, energy, and industrial applications.
The half-bridge devices recently released today combine Trench IGBTs — which potentially deliver improved power savings — with Gen IV FRED Pt® anti-parallel diodes with ultra soft reverse recovery characteristics. Offering a new gate pin orientation, the modules’ compact INT-A-PAK package is now 100 % compatible with the 34 mm industry-standard package to offer a mechanical drop-in replacement.
The industrial-level devices will be used in power supply inverters for railway equipment; energy generation, distribution, and storage systems; welding equipment; motor drives; and robotics.
