Business Wire
International Rectifier, IR® (NYSE: IRF), a world leader in
power management technology, today announced the introduction of
the AUIRGP66524D0 and AUIRGF66524D0 automotive-qualified 600V IGBTs
optimized for small auxiliary motor drive applications including
air conditioning compressors for electric and hybrid vehicles.
Leveraging IR’s COOLiRIGBT™ platform and co-packaged with a soft
recovery diode, the 24A AUIRGP66524D0 and AUIRGF66524D0 feature low
VCE(ON) to reduce power dissipation and maximum junction
temperature of 175°C to achieve extremely high power density.
Available in a standard length lead TO-247 and long lead TO-247
package, the new devices also offer a minimum 6μs short circuit
rating at 150°C. A square reverse bias safe operating area (SRBSOA)
provides additional ruggedness. The devices are designed with a
positive VCE(ON) temperature coefficient for easy paralleling for
higher power applications.
“The AUIRGP66524D0 and AUIRGF66524D0 deliver a rugged, efficient
cost-effective solution to meet the demand of 600V motor drive
applications used in today’s electric and hybrid vehicles,” said
Ben Jackson, Principal Product Manager, Automotive IGBTs, Diodes
and Modules.
IR’s automotive IGBTs are subject to dynamic and static part
average testing combined with 100 percent automated wafer level
visual inspection as part of IR’s automotive quality initiative
targeting zero defects. The new devices are all environmentally
friendly and assembled with IR’s automotive grade bill of materials
which are lead-free and RoHS compliant.
More information is available on the International Rectifier
website.
