IGBT Press-packs for the industrial market
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a newly developed 4500 V and 2000 A Press-Pack IGBT module for power transmission and industrial voltage drives applications. The module employs SPT IGBT chips with exceptionally low losses and high Safe Operating Area (SOA). The use of SPT IGBT chips in this Press Pack IGBT module allows for higher power densities and the package provides a highly flexible modular platform with very good ruggedness.

This paper presents a review of the state of the art of power electronics technology in both industrial and traction drive application. Key development trends include the dominance of ac adjustable-speed drives in new applications, with the squirrel-cage induction machine as the preferred machine in most cases. Particularly striking has been the rapid ascendance of the insulated-gate bipolar tr...
متن کاملIGBT Protection in AC or BLDC Motor Drives
In the last decade, industrial AC drives have become more advanced in performance and more compact in size. This is largely due to the rapid development of power silicon technology, including the enhancement of IGBTs and of High Voltage Integrated Circuits. Additionally, this technological growth has been particularly accelerated for low horsepower (< 5 Hp) AC Drives. Yet the ground fault prote...
متن کاملNew 4.5kV High Power Flat-Packaged IGBTs
Recently, high-voltage and high power IGBTs (insulated gate bipolar transistors) have been increasingly used in industrial fields, and in tractions and transformer facilities, where GTO (gate turn-off) thyristors were generally used in the past. The major reasons for the increase in IGBT applications are because, compared to GTO thyristors, IGBTs have the advantage of being easier to handle due...
