IHV 3300 V

Overview

3.3 kV IHV IGBT modules – The reliable performance choice for your high demanding railway and industry application

Introduced already in the 90th, we established the standard for High Voltage IGBT modules with the IHV. Years later after this package already was adopted by all competition manufacturers and used in countless applications all over the world, Infineon still does continuous improvements and equips this package with latest technologies to enables upgrades for older designs of its worldwide users as well as new potentials.

The various use and in consequence market leadership of the Infineon 3.3 kV IHV (IGBT High- Voltage) modules is based on customers, that especially like its supreme reliability at harshest environmental conditions, proven by field-records over decades and the unbeatable power density, which enables in consequence their own success.

The latest generation of 3.3 kV IHV B operating as Single Switch-, Chopper- and Diode topology, is offered in two package sizes (130 x 140 x 38 mm & 190 x 140 x 38 mm) at current ratings of 825 A to 2400 A  and shines with enhanced Power Cycling Capability, which is used by customers to extend life time of their designs and/or operate at higher performance.

IHV-B is addressing customer requirements to energy efficiency, lifetime and reliability

The new Enhanced IHV-B is the latest upgrade to this package group and enables as trimmed to switch similar an easy replacement to the current preferred choice (Infineon IGBT 3) for any high demanding application, running reliable at permanent and changing loads in daily demand, like HVDC, STATCOM, MVD, Metro, Locomotive or High Speed Train.
Moreover its game changing feature of life-time extension of Factor 2, compared to all available competition and also our IGBT 3 products, is already worshiped by many market leading customers; as these modules can combine now the very latest high voltage Front- and Backend technologies and decades of experience as market leader into the impressive performance upgrade of >40% without reliability decrease in the same size housing.
