IXYS Offers High Efficiency 270V to 330V IGBTs for Power Conversion Applications.SANTA CLARA Santa Clara, city, Cuba Santa Clara (sän`tä klä`rä), city (1994 est. pop. 217,000), capital of Villa Clara prov., central Cuba. , Calif. -- IXYS Corporation (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 :IXYS), announces the release of IGBTs optimized for applications requiring voltage ratings ranging from 270V to 330V. These new IGBTs utilize IXYS' new 300V IGBT IGBT Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor IGBT Integrated Gate Bipolar Transistor platform as developed for capacitive load, power switching applications. They are UIS (graphics, programming) UIS - A VMS graphics programming interface package for VAXstations. rated and exhibit optimal balance of saturation voltage versus switching performance for applications in the 300V range. Several unique voltage grades are available, covering from 270V to 330V. The IXGQ90N27PB is a 270V IGBT optimized for switching frequencies up to 50kHz. The IXGH120N30B3 and IXGH120N30C3 are optimized for switching frequencies up to 50kHz for the B3 grade and 100kHz hard-switching for the C3 grade devices. The IXGQ85N33PCD PCD polycystic disease. 1 IGBT Copack, rated at 330V, has a saturation voltage of 2.1V at 50A, and supports hard switching frequencies up to 100kHz. These new IGBTs offer a cost effective alternative to MOSFETs for power conversion and capacitor discharge applications. Their high gain, UIS capability and optimization of saturation voltage versus switching performance at these voltage ratings offer a new, high value option for power switching applications at 300V and below. These parts are currently offered in the cost effective TO-3P and TO-247 discrete packages. Additional IGBT products in this voltage range will be offered in the future, expanding the breadth and quality of IGBT product options available to power conversion designers. Of additional interest for copack diodes are IXYS high performance HiPerFRED[TM] 2nd Generation Fast Diodes. For more information on these products, including the whole range of IXYS MOSFETs, IGBTs, Bipolar and Power Management IC products, please go to www.ixys.com. IXYS develops and markets primarily high performance power and RF semiconductors and control ICs that are used in controlling and converting electrical power efficiently in power systems for telecommunication infrastructure, motor drives, medical systems and transportation. IXYS also serves emerging markets with digital and analog ICs that control flat panel displays A thin display screen for computer and TV usage. The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time , medical instruments and telecommunication products.
