Abstract:
Power Modules have been generally proliferated in all kind of applications to increase controllability and efficiency as key objectives. Motor drives and inverters for automotive are emerging markets and imply special requirements focusing on reliability, performance, functionality and module construction. Employing Carrier Stored Trench Gate Bipolar Transistors chip and a more compact packaging technology 800A / 650V and 500A /1200V class Intelligent Power Module with integrated DC/DC converter and further improved thermal cycling capability has been developed.
