Fuji Electric Announces New IPM Modules Fuji Electric Corp has added the newest Small Intelligent Power Module (IPM) as part of new 7th Generation X-Series Portfolio The latest Fuji IPM modules come with a control IC providing IGBT drive and protection circuits, making the design of peripheral circuits straightforward and ensuring high system reliability. This new P642 IPM features a product line-up ranging from 50A to 75A at 650V expanding the 15A to 35A at 600V range of the P633A IPM. All Fuji Electric Dual-In-Line Small IPMs come equipped with overcurrent protection, short circuit protection, control power voltage drop protection, and overheating protection, while also outputting alarm signals. “Fuji Electric continues to expand our offering in the dual-in-line small IPM market and the new P642 series is our latest offering expanding our range to 75A” said James Usack, Division General Manager Electronic Devices Division. Fuji Electric Corp. of America is a wholly owned subsidiary of Fuji Electric Co., Ltd., headquartered in Tokyo, Japan and has been responsible for sales and distribution of the company’s products since 1970. Fuji Electric Co., Ltd. began developing power electronics equipment in 1923, and is a global leader in industrial products ranging from semiconductors, HMIs, contactors, relays, and power generation equipment to AC drives and uninterruptible power supply systems.

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation announced today that it would begin shipping 17 new models of T series power semiconductor modules featuring seventh-generation insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). The new modules have a 1.7kV rating and realize improved power loss and reliability for general-purpose inverters, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), photovoltaic (PV), wind power-generation systems and other industrial equipment. Product Features include 1) Expanded lineup of 17 models with 1.7kV rating provides for wide range of inverter capacity. 2) Reduced power loss thanks to seventh-generation IGBT and diode. 3) Latest package technology enhances reliability of de facto standard package.

China’s Hopewind selected ABB’s LoPak modules After two years of stringent testing and one year of field operations, it finally paid off. ABB’s LoPak IGBT module is now qualified by one of the world’s leading wind power converter manufacturers. Hopewind Electric Co., Ltd based in Shenzhen, China. is scheduled to take volume delivery of LoPak 1700 V / 450 A ABB medium power IGBT modules for use in wind converter applications operating between 1.5 to 2.5 MW (megawatt). This follows a successful collaboration between Hopewind, Sunking (distribution partner in China) and the ABB Power Grids team in Lenzburg, Peking and Manila. The company´s current production phase will generate up to 2,000 MW using wind power, a capacity equivalent to the needs of one million of Swiss households.

ECONODUAL3 Infineon Technologies AG just introduced the new IGBT7 chip for its well-known Easy housing platform. Now it is taking the state-of-the-art TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 to the arena of medium power: in the standard industry package EconoDUAL 3. In this chip technology, the 1200 V module provides a leading nominal current of 900 A enabling a 30 percent higher inverter output current for the same frame size compared with the former technology. it can also be used in construction, commercial and agricultural vehicles (CAV), servo drives, as well as UPS and solar inverters. Improving the already new micro-pattern trench technology, the TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 chip performs with much lower static losses compared to the IGBT4. Its on-state voltage is reduced by up to 30 percent for the same chip area. bringing significant loss reduction in the application, for industrial drives this is ideal as they usually operate at moderate switching frequencies. The oscillation behavior and the controllability of the IGBT have been improved. The power modules feature a maximum allowed overload junction temperature of 175°C. Among the other improvements there is the freewheeling diode (FWD) which has also been optimized for drive applications. The forward-voltage drop of the emitter-controlled 7th generation diode (EC7) is now 100 mV lower than the forward-voltage drop of the EC4 diode, with reduced oscillation tendency during diode turn-off, the future looks bright for this kind of technology.
