Infineon's new power semiconductor devices
speak energy efficiency
Infineon has presented below new discrete power semiconductor
devices at the PCIM Europe 2011 trade show:
Infineon's new RC-Drives Fast IGBTs offer up to 96% Energy
Efficiency with High Switching Frequency for inverters.
Infineon expands its family of Reverse Conducting (RC)
600V IGBT with two new switching power devices that achieve
up to 96% efficiency in target applications.
Infineon`s New 650V CoolMOS CFD2 Technology with Integrated
Fast Body Diode for applications like servers, solar, telecom
SMPS and lighting. Infineon says the new 650V CoolMOS CFD2
- the world`s first high-voltage transistor with both a
drain-source voltage of 650V and an integrated fast body
diode.
Infineon expands its OptiMOS power MOSFET portfolio, introducing
60V to 150V products in CanPAK. Infineon says compared to
standard discrete packages, the CanPAK metal 'can' construction
facilitates double-sided cooling along with almost no package
parasitic inductances.
Infineon has extended its SiC Schottky diodes portfolio
with 1200V diodes in the new TO-247HC (High Creepage) package.
This new package layout is fully compatible with the industry
standard TO-247 and can therefore easily be placed in already
existing designs, without extra efforts.
Infineon has extended its automotive qualified (AEC Q101)
small signal MOSFETs with the 60V logic level OptiMOS "606"
family. Products are available in the popular SOT89, TSOP6
and SC59 packages and are particularly suitable where space
saving and low power consumption are essential requirements.
Target applications include, as an external FET for low
power DC/DC converters, balancing in a Battery Energy Control
Module (BECM) for electric vehicle, hybrid electric vehicle
and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle and as an external FET
for several microcontrollers.
"Using Infineon's energy-efficient semiconductor solutions
allows as much as 25 percent of the global power consumption
to be saved. Our products outperform the global energy efficiency
standards and thereby offer our customers a clear competitive
edge", says Andreas Urschitz, Vice President &
General Manager Power Management and Supply Discretes at
Infineon Technologies.
