Solutions for solar energy systems

Infineon provides a comprehensive portfolio to deliver the best efficiency and reliability for solar applications. Infineon’s leading edge technology like Superjunction MOSFET, Trench + Fieldstop IGBT, Coreless transformer driver, etc, combined with rich experience and highest quality, ensured our No.1 position in solar application. The newest add ARM® Cortex™-M4 based MCU enables easy and high efficiency design.

• System cost down: Inverters manufacturers will continuously optimize the price per output power on system level.
• System efficiency: Efficiency is key for return of investment.
• Reliability: 5+years lifetime for string inverters and 25 years for micro inverter and optimizer.

Infineon addresses above solar requirements with the best semiconductor solutions.

• Increasing switching frequency enables cost reduction on magnetic, housing, cooling, etc.
• Infineon next generation CoolMOS™ C7 and TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT with very low switching losses, enable higher switching frequencies.
• CoolMOS™ P6 and TRENCHSTOP™ 5 offer superior price performance balance.

• CoolMOS™ C7 offers industry highest efficiency at hard switching, CoolMOS™ CFD2 and upcoming Infineon CoolMOS™ P6 offer optimized efficiency across whole load for soft switching.
