International Rectifier (IR), a provider of power management technology, has expanded its family of 600 V insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) with the introduction of the IRGP4640D, IRGP4650D and IRGP4660D.
The new rugged devices are optimized for uninterruptible power supplies, solar applications and other applications, the company says. They utilize trench-thin wafer technology to offer lower conduction and switching losses.
Co-packaged with a soft recovery low Qrr diode, the new devices are optimized for ultra-fast switching (8 kHz to 30kHz) with 5us short circuit rating and feature low Vce(on) and positive Vce(on) temperature coefficient for easy paralleling, the company adds.
