The IXYX40N250CHV is a 2500 V, 40 A XPT IGBT in a TO-247PLUS-HV package, designed for high-voltage applications such as UPS, motor drives, SMPS, PFC circuits, and high-frequency power inverters. It has a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 2500 V, a continuous collector current of 40 A at 110°C, and a peak collector current of 370 A for 1 ms. The saturation voltage is 3.2 V to 4.0 V at 40 A and 15 V gate drive. Thermal resistance from junction to case is 0.10 °C/W. It operates with a junction temperature range of -55 °C to 175 °C and meets RoHS standards. The device exhibits low gate drive requirements and high power density with a weight of 6 g.
Designed using the proprietary thin-wafer XPT™ technology and state-of-the-art IGBT process, these devices display qualities such as reduced thermal resistance, low tail current, low energy loss, and high-speed switching capability. Thanks to the positive temperature coefficient of their on-state voltage, these high-voltage IGBTs can be used in parallel, which provides cost-effective solutions compared to series-connected, lower-voltage devices. Consequently, this results in reduction in the associated gate drive circuitry, simplicity in design, and improvement in the reliability of the overall system. The optional co-packed fast recovery diodes have low reverse recovery time and are optimized to produce smooth switching waveforms and significantly lower electromagnetic interference (EMI). Advantages: Higher efficiency Elimination of multiple series-connected devices Increased reliability of power systems Thin wafer XPT™ technology Low on-state voltages VCE(sat) Co-packed fast recovery diodes Positive temperature coefficient of VCE(sat) International standard size high-voltage packages
