Vishay Intertechnology Releases New IGBT Power Modules [Health & Beauty Close - Up](Health & Beauty Close - Up Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Vishay Intertechnology introduced four new IGBT power modules designed specifically for string solar inverters and medium-power- range uninterruptible power supplies. According to a release from the company, combining Ultrafast Trench IGBTs, high-efficiency HEXFRED and FRED Pt diode technologies, and thermistors for thermal management in single packages featuring pressfit technology, the Vishay Semiconductor modules offer complete integrated solutions for inverters based on 3- level neutral point clamp topologies and interleaved multiple- channel MPPT boost converters. With their integrated design, the devices released help designers reduce time to market and improve overall system performance. For 3- level NPC topologies, the VS-ENQ030L120S provides a collector-to- emitter breakdown voltage of 1200 V and a collector current rating of 30 A. Designed for 3-level inverter stages, the VS-ETF075Y60U and VS-ETF150Y65U offer designers a choice of 75 A and 150 A collector current ratings and 600 V and 650 V collector-to-emitter breakdown voltages, respectively, and provide high-temperature performance to +175 degrees C. Optimized for double boost converters, the 15 A VS- ETL015Y120H features a collector-to-emitter breakdown voltage of 1200 V, high-efficiency silicon boost diodes, integrated 62 A bypass diodes, and panel short-circuit full-current reverse polarity protection diodes. All devices offer a modular and scalable design to fit higher power level applications. The RoHS-compliant devices are UL-approved file E78996. Vishay's power modules are compliant to industry standards, and custom solutions can be tailored to meet specific application requirements.
