Abstract:
The Industrial High Voltage (IHV) package has been the most reliable building block in high-power, highvoltage applications like traction, high-voltage DC transmission (HVDC) and medium-voltage drives (MVD). The latest IGBT4 chip technology combined with an optimized internal layout offers the first 2000 A 3300 V module in this package, raising the current density by 33% in comparison to the state-of-the-art 1500 A 3300 V IHV module. This paper depicts the electrical and thermal performance of the IGBT4 and EC4 diode technology in the IHV housing and its application benefits.
