Toshiba’s new sixth generation IGBT’s are now available from TTI Inc. Sixth generation IGBT technology offers improved switching loss/conduction loss trade off for increased efficiency and improved performance. This latest technology has been incorporated into Toshiba’s new family of compact 600V devices and suits a variety of hard switching applications, including motor drives, solar inverters and uninterruptible power supplies. Toshiba’s sixth generation IGBT technology combines a finer pattern design and a thinner ‘punch through’ wafer process than the previous generation, as well as a highly optimised vertical design. As a result, devices based around the new process are able to provide lower VCE(sat) conduction losses and reduced Eon and Eoff switching losses. New products featuring the sixth generation technology offer current ratings of 15A (GT15J341), 20A (GT20J341), 30A (GT30J341) and 50A (GT50J342). Each of the parts integrates both the IGBT and a fast reverse recovery diode connected between emitter and…
