About

Power switches for industrial motor drives and controls

We offer you a broad portfolio of efficient semiconductors optimized for motor control. You can rely on our intelligent power modules (IPMs) and discretes for smart designs in the low-power range. For medium-power drives, our EasyPIM?, EasyPACK?, and EconoPIM? modules are the perfect match. Moving on to the high-power spectrum, EconoDUAL? and PrimePACK? are the solutions of choice. Combined with the innovative.XT interconnection technology, PrimePACK? modules can help designers overcome the overrating dilemma as they extend the lifetime by raising thermal and power cycling capabilities.

Highlights of our portfolio include TRENCHSTOP? IGBT7 modules, tailored specifically to the needs of drive applications. Ideal for general-purpose drive (GPD) applications, TRENCHSTOP? IGBT7 devices improve power density, controllability, and overload capability in a variety of proven packages for cost and time gains. For high-speed drives and inverter integration, our CoolSiC? MOSFETs are an attractive solution as they reduce switching and conduction losses, especially under partial load conditions.

Features and benefits in drive applications

The unique and specific requirements of motor drive systems demand a new approach to IGBT design. With the right IGBT technology, it is possible to create better-positioned modules to address these needs. Infineon has taken this approach with its latest generation of IGBT technology, that is, IGBT7.

At the chip level, the IGBT7 uses micro-pattern trenches (MPT), the structure of which contributes significantly to reducing forward voltage and increasing conductivity in the drift zone. For applications with a moderate switching frequency, such as motor drives, the IGBT7 delivers a significant reduction in previous generations' losses. Another improvement offered by IGBT7 from a generation earlier (IGBT4) is the freewheeling diode, which has also been optimized for drive applications. The forward voltage drop of the emitter-controlled diode, EC7, is now 100 mV lower than the forward voltage drop of the EC4 diode, with improved reverse-recovery softness.?

Silicon carbide solutions for industrial drives

With more automation being used across industries, there is a correspondingly increased demand for servo motors. Their ability to combine precise motion control with high torque levels makes them the perfect fit for automation and robotics.

Using its manufacturing expertise and long experience, Infineon has developed a SiC trench technology that offers higher performance than the IGBT but with comparable robustness, e.g., a short-circuit time of 2 ?s or even 3 ?s. Infineon's CoolSiC? MOSFETs also address potential problems inherent in SiC devices, such as unwanted capacitive turn-on. Furthermore, the SiC MOSFETs are available in the industry-standard TO-247-3 package, and now, with even better switching performance, in the TO-247- 4 package. In addition, the CoolSiC? MOSFETs are also available in the SMD package TO-267-7. Besides these TO-packages, the SiC MOSFET is also available in Easy 1B, Easy 2B, and 62 mm packages.?
