The device is a 1200V/8A IPM that integrates an inverter, a rectifier, shunt resistors and the entire gate driver circuit for three-phase input operation in such a way that very few additional external components are needed. Even the bootstrap diode and capacitor are included. A high level of integration is achieved by adopting the screen printing technology on a ceramic-based substrate.
The IPM will be available in production-quantities from September 2015. Sample quantities are available on request.
