It will be on display for the first time at the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC), on 16-20th March 2025, booth #1348.
In addition to having a drain-to-source voltage (VDS) of 1200V, the MOSFET reduces total switching losses to 1646µJ and has a low on-resistance (RDS,on) of 16.1mΩ. It is available as a bare die or in a four-pin TO-247 4L discrete package measuring 31.4 x 16.1 x 4.8mm, which includes a reliable body diode and a driver-source pin for gate driving.
High-quality known good die (KGD) testing has been conducted using UV tape and tape & reels, with all parts undergoing testing and verification at voltages exceeding 1400V, as well as being avalanche tested to 800mJ. Reliability is further improved through the device’s 100% wafer-level gate oxide burn-in screening and 100% UIL testing of discrete packaged devices.
The device has been developed to have a low reverse recovery charge (QRR 470nC) and lower capacitance, improving switching speed, switching losses, EMI and overall efficiency; to be easy to parallel; and with a longer creepage distance (9mm), improving electrical insulation, voltage tolerance, and reliability.
Specifications: ratings and electrical/thermal characteristics
