Automotive IGBT power modules based on leading IGBT technology designed for Hybrid electric and full Electric Vehicle (xEV) applications
Automotive power modules provide the ideal solution for converting the DC current from the electric battery into the AC current for the electric motor in hybrid and electric vehicles. Through our leading technologies with very low energy conversion losses, our automotive power modules contribute to increasing energy efficiency and battery range of electric vehicles.
Infineon automotive IGBT modules offer high voltage performance, fast switching, and extremely low switching losses, as well as flexible and compact designs. Designed with market leading technology, our IGBT power module automotive solutions are AQG 324 qualified and offer high mechanical robustness and ease-of-use in design and manufacturing. Additionally, our IGBT power modules can be used in other electric vehicle applications like on-board chargers, DC-DC converters, and auxiliary high voltage inverters for pumps and fans, providing high reliability, ease of use, and efficiency.
Automotive IGBT Automotive Module Solutions
Infineon’s wide range of automotive IGBT modules include HybridPACK™ and EasyPACK™ product families and extends across the full power spectrum required by IGBT modules in hybrid and electric vehicles. Various product versions in five different packages enable maximum scalability across voltage and power classes, from 50A to 950A and 400V to 1200V (nominal chip values). Using our leading automotive silicon and CoolSiCTM technologies, we offer the best technical fit for a range of applications including traction inverter, on-board battery charger, auxiliary inverters, and HV/LV DC-DC converters.
Our range of automotive power modules all have one thing in common: they offer the highest power densities and efficiency thanks to leading IGBT technologies. The Infineon automotive IGBT module range offers a broad portfolio of six-pack power semiconductor modules, such as the HybridPACK™ Drive for scalable power ranges of 100 kW to 180 kW for the 750V and 1200V class, and the HybridPACK™ DC6 and HybridPACK™ DC6i that further extends the frame module portfolio to address lower power classes.
Infineon’s HybridPACK™ product family also includes DSC power modules. DSC (Double Sided Cooling) modules are solutions optimized for medium power inverters from 30 to 75 kW where power density is key. The HYBRIDPACK™ DSC is a package offering high power density, excellent thermal performance, and high reliability.
For low-to medium power inverters, Infineon completes the automotive power module portfolio with the EasyPACK™ automotive power modules . These are very compact and flexible half-bridge solutions for traction inverter, auxiliary, OBC, and DC-DC applications of hybrid and electric vehicles. The EasyPACK™ 1B and EasyPACK™ 2B footprints enable high integration density as well as a fast and easy assembly process. Newly available in the market is the automotive EasyPACK™ 2B, containing Infineon´s latest EDT2 chip technology to maximize efficiency and cost-effectiveness for low power inverters.
- Our evaluation kits are designed to support customers in their first steps in designing applications with our power modules. All of our evaluation kits are open designs. Therefore, they can be taken as a design reference for applications utilizing HybridPACK™ or EasyPACK™ modules. In addition they can help to test the electrical and thermal performance of our power modules in an example application.
- Our main inverter evalution boards enable you to operate basic open loop inverters within a few minutes and without any software or communication to external control units.
- Passive three phase inductive loads and simple load tests (DEMO-MODE) can be driven up to the maximum performance of the power modules. The shipping content includes a data source with schematics, layout and bill of material, information on the gate driver board, logic board and interface PCB. For instance,the Evaluation Kit HybridPACK™ Drive is intended to demonstrate the outstanding performance of the latest Infineon IGBT generation EDT2 combined with our latest module package HybridPACK™ Drive. One of many approaches of designing inverters with our flexible molded modules can be found in the Evaluation Kit HybridPACK™ DSC. It implements our HybridPACK™ DSC S1 or S2 and demonstrates the modules double-sided cooling concept resulting in high power density and advanced sensing & diagnostic concepts.
- Another supported application which can be demonstrated with our Evaluation Kit for EasyPACK™ is the HV/LV DC/DC Converter. The evaluation board – and our highly efficient EasyPACK™ itself – help to achieve less charging losses, increased battery voltage and charging speed.
