APT Europe Introduces Field Stop, Trench Gate IGBT Power Modules for High Efficiency Applications.BORDEAUX, France -- Advanced Power Technology Europe (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :APTI APTI Association for Preservation Technology International APTI Air Pollution Training Institute ), a leader in power module technology is pleased to announce a new product line of Field Stop, Trench Gate IGBT IGBT Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor IGBT Integrated Gate Bipolar Transistor standard power modules. These new products broaden our offering of 600V products in the SP3 and SP6-P, and introduce a complete new line of 600V, 1200V and 1700V devices in SP4 and SP6 packages. All these products offer minimum VCE VCE Victorian Certificate of Education (State of Victoria, Australia) VCE Virginia Cooperative Extension VCE Volvo Construction Equipment VCE Venice, Italy - Marco Polo (Airport Code) (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 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 PCB: see polychlorinated biphenyl. PCB in full polychlorinated biphenyl Any of a class of highly stable organic compounds prepared by the reaction of chlorine with biphenyl, a two-ring compound. 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 A material that absorbs heat. Typically made of aluminum, heat sinks are widely used in amplifiers and other electronic devices that build up heat. Small heat sinks are the most economical method for cooling microprocessors and other chips. --Easy to Parallel - Positive Temperature Coefficient Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) refers to materials that experience an increase in electrical resistance when their temperature is raised. Materials which have useful engineering applications usually show a relatively rapid increase with temperature, i.e. 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.
