Description:
Powerex IGBTMOD™ Modules
are designed for use in switching
applications. Each module con-
sists of two IGBT Transistors in a
half-bridge configuration with each
transistor having a reverse-con-
nected super-fast recovery free-
wheel diode. All components and
interconnects are isolated from the
heat sinking baseplate, offering
simplified system assembly and
thermal management.
Features:
£ Low Drive Power
£ Low VCE(sat)
£ Discrete Super-Fast Recovery
Free-Wheel Diode
£ Isolated Baseplate for Easy
Heat Sinking
Applications:
£ AC Motor Control
£ UPS
£ Battery Powered Supplies
Ordering Information:
Example: Select the complete
module number you desire from
the table - i.e. CM50DU-24Fis a
1200V (VCES), 50 Ampere Dual
IGBTMOD™ Power Module.
