Description

Using the latest high voltage technology based on a patented strip layout, STMicroelectronics has designed an advanced family of IGBTs, the PowerMESH™ IGBTs, with outstanding performances. The suffix “K” identifies a family optimized for high frequency motor control applications with short circuit withstand capability.

■ Lower on voltage drop (Vcesat)

■ Lower CRES / CIES ratio (no cross-conduction susceptibility)

■ Very soft ultra fast recovery antiparallel diode

■ Short circuit withstand time 10µs

Applications

■ High frequency motor controls

■ SMPS and PFC in both hard switch and resonant topologies

■ Motor drivers
