RC-H5 650V - Reverse Conducting IGBT
20A RC-H5 1200V, 1350V and 1600V - Reverse Conducting IGBT

The RC-H5 650 V devices have been optimized for the lowest VCE(sat) for best efficiency and thermal performance, as well as lower Eoff for the improved performance in designs with higher switching frequencies. Up to 30% reduction in losses is now possible.

The RC-H5 650 V family offers low power losses, increased blocking voltage and better EMI behavior, plus it can be used in designs which need hard switching capabilities at start up.

The new 30 A, 1600 V RC-H5 completes the latest RC-H5 generation of reverse conducting IGBTs developed and  optimized for the rigorous requirements of Induction Cooking applications, offering best-in class efficiency with lower switching and conduction losses for soft switching applications.

The RC-H5 family is offered in three current classes – 20A, 30A and 40A - for blocking voltages of 1200V and 1350V and in 30A for 1600V with high ruggedness and efficiency, excellent thermal performance and lower EMI filtering requirements reducing overall system costs and design efforts.

Features Benefits Applications
  • Switching losses reduced by 30%
  • Very low conduction losses
  • T j(max) = 175°C
  • Soft current turn-off waveforms for low EMI
  • Higher blocking voltage V BR(min) = 1350 V
  • Increased switching frequency
  • Lowest power dissipation
  • Better thermal management for higher reliability
  • Lower EMI filtering requirements
  • Reduced system costs
  • Induction Cooking Stoves
  • Inverterized Microwave Ovens
  • Induction Rice Cookers
  • Induction Water Heaters
  • Other resonant switching topologies
