• UltraFast: Optimized for high operating
frequencies 8-40 kHz in hard switching, >200
kHz in resonant mode
• Generation 4 IGBT design provides tighter
parameter distribution and higher efficiency than
Generation 3
• IGBT co-packaged with HEXFREDTM ultrafast,
ultra-soft-recovery anti-parallel diodes for use in
bridge configurations
• Industry standard TO-247AC package
Benefits
• Generation 4 IGBT's offer highest efficiencies
available
IGBT's optimized for specific application conditions
• HEXFRED diodes optimized for performance with
IGBT's . Minimized recovery characteristics require
less/no snubbing
• Designed to be a "drop-in" replacement for equivalent
industry-standard Generation 3 IR IGBT's
