The IXBT42N170A is a 1700 V reverse-conducting BIMOSFET IGBT in a TO-268 package, designed for high-voltage switching applications such as switch-mode power supplies and AC motor drives. It has a continuous collector current of 42 A at 25 °C and 21 A at 90 °C, with a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 5.2 V to 6.0 V at 21 A. The device features an anti-parallel diode with a forward voltage of 5.0 V and reverse recovery time of 330 ns at 25 A. Thermal resistance junction-to-case is 0.35 °C/W. It operates with a junction temperature range of -55 °C to 150 °C and meets international standard package dimensions. The part is qualified under AEC-Q200 and complies with RoHS standards.
BiMOSFETs are devices, which have combined strengths of MOSFETs and IGBTs. Non-epitaxial construction and new fabrication processes were used in making BiMOSFETs a great success.These high voltage devices are ideal for parallel operation due to the positive voltage temperature coefficient of both of its saturation voltage, and the forward voltage drop of its intrinsic diode. Furthermore, this “free” intrinsic body diode serves as a protection diode, providing an alternative path for the inductive load current during device turn-off, preventing high Ldi/dt voltage transients from inflicting damage to the device. High blocking voltage High power density High current handling capability Low conduction losses MOS gate turn on for drive simplicity International standard and proprietary ISOPLUSTM packages
