APT Europe Introduces Field Stop, Trench Gate IGBT Power Modules for High Efficiency Applications.BORDEAUX Bordeaux (bôrdō`), city (1990 pop. 213,274), capital of Gironde dept., SW France, on the Garonne River. Bordeaux is a major economic and cultural center, and a busy port accessible to oceangoing ships from the Atlantic through the Gironde River., France -- Advanced Power Technology Europe (NASDAQ:APTI APTI - Air Pollution Training Institute APTI - Association for Preservation Technology International), a leader in power module technology is pleased to announce a new product line of Field Stop, Trench Gate IGBT standard power modules. These new products broaden our offering of 600V products in the SP3 SP3 - Security Protocol 3 SP3 - Service Pack 3 SP3 - Sky Sports 3 (UK TV channel) SP3 - Steam Propulsionman Third Class (USN rating) and SP6-P, and introduce a complete new line of 600V, 1200V and 1700V devices in SP4 SP4 - Security Protocol Layer 4 SP4 - Specialist, Grade E4 (US Army) and SP6 packages. All these products offer minimum VCE VCE - Vagina, Ectocervix, Endocervix (type of vaginal smear) VCE - Vapor Cloud Expansion VCE - Vapor Cloud Explosion VCE - Variable Cycle Engine VCE - Vehicle Command and Control Element VCE - Vehicle Condition Evaluation VCE - Venice, Italy - Marco Polo (Airport Code) VCE - Victorian Certificate of Education (State of Victoria, Australia) VCE - Vinyl Chloride-Ethylene VCE - Virginia Cooperative Extension VCE - Virtual Collaborative Environment(sat) saturation voltage (typically 1.5V for 600V, 1.7V for 1200V and 2V for 1700V). They are dedicated to low frequency operation where overall system efficiency is a concern. The ideal switching frequency is 20 kHz kHz kilohertz; 1000 hertz. for 600V products, 10 kHz to 20 kHz for 1200V products and up to 10 kHz for 1700V products. These modules are offered in buck, boost, dual buck, dual boost, dual common source, phase leg, full bridge, asymmetrical bridge, triple phase leg and triple dual common source configurations. Current rating range from 20A to 600A for 600V devices, 50A to 400A for 1200V devices and from 50A to 300A @ for 1700V devices, all rated with Tc=80(degrees)C. Key Features: --Very Low Profile - Same as Industry Package SOT-227 Height for SP3 and SP6-P --Space and Cost Savings - Small Footprint --Solderable Terminals - Easy PCB Mounting for SP3, SP4 and SP6-P Packages --M5 Screw Terminals for SP6 --Wide Range of Voltage and Current Ratings --Very Low Inductance --High Efficiency - Low VCE(sat) Saturation Voltage --Very Short Tail Current --Isolated Package - Easy Mounting to Heat Sink --Easy to Parallel - Positive Temperature Coefficient Applications Main applications for this extended family are motor drives, Uninterruptible Power Supplies, welders, plasma cutters, solar inverters, inductive heating, solid state relays for three phase mains and other applications where low conduction is of primary concern. The very low profile offering low parasitics inductances makes this product range a component of choice when space, electrical performance, weight and cost are a concern. Refer to the web page for Field Stop Trench Gate part numbers. Data sheets are available to assist the designer, describing the features and benefits of these new devices in greater detail. These may be downloaded from APT's website at http://www.advancedpower.com or obtained from the factory. Availability: Samples are available now. Lead times for volume quantities are 8-12 weeks. Pricing for 1000 pieces ranges from $17.00 to $120.00. With Operations in Bend, Oregon, Santa Clara, California, Montgomeryville, Pennsylvania, Boulder, Colorado, and Bordeaux, France, APT is a leading supplier of power semiconductors for RF, Microwave, Linear, and Switch mode Applications. |
