High-performance CIPOS™ Maxi transfer molded silicon carbide
Combining an optimized 6-channel 1200 V SOI gate driver and 6 CoolSiC™ MOSFETs in a DIP 36X23D package Infineon introduces the world's first 1200 V transfer molded Intelligent Power Module (IPM) with silicon carbide (SiC). The new CIPOS™ Maxi family member is aiming at variable speed drive applications such as industrial motors, pumps and HVAC - making it easy to integrate SiC in the power design of motors.
IM828-XCC integrates 6 CoolSiC™ MOSFETs with an optimized 1200 V 6-channel SOI gate driver to increase reliability, provide excellent protection and optimize PCB size and system costs.
The smallest and most compact package in the 1200 V class, this IPM combines a power rating in excess of 8 kW with exceptional power density, reliability and performance. It offers excellent protections such as under-voltage lockout on all channels, all switches turnoff during protection, cross-conduction prevention, over-current protection, temperature monitoring.
