2.5kV-6.5kV Industry Standard IGBT Modules Setting a New Benchmark in SOA Capability

摘要

In this paper, we introduce our new high voltage IGBT HiPak module line-up with voltage ratings ranging from 2.5kV up to 6.5kV. We demonstrate for the first time the performance of our HV-HiPak modules employing ABB's newly developed high voltage SPT-IGBTs and diodes. The new devices show excellent over all electrical performance and are capable of withstanding extreme conditions during device turn-off and short circuit operation. Therefore, setting new standards in SOA capability for the given voltage class.
