The Powerline range of high power modules includes half
bridge, chopper, dual and single switch configurations covering
voltages from 600V to 3300V and currents up to 2400A.
The GP1600FSM12 is a singlel switch 1200V, n channel
enhancement mode, insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT)
module. The IGBT has a wide reverse bias safe operating area
(RBSOA) ensuring reliability in demanding applications. This
device is optimised for traction drives and other applications
requiring high thermal cycling capability or very high reliability.
The module incorporates an electrically isolated base plate
and low inductance construction enabling circuit designers to
optimise circuit layouts and utilise earthed heat sinks for safety.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Stresses above those listed under 'Absolute Maximum Ratings' may cause permanent damage to the device. In extreme
conditions, as with all semiconductors, this may include potentially hazardous rupture of the package. Appropriate safety
precautions should always be followed. Exposure to Absolute Maximum Ratings may affect device reliability.

POWER ASSEMBLY CAPABILITY
The Power Assembly group was set up to provide a support service for those customers requiring more than the basic
semiconductor, and has developed a flexible range of heatsink / clamping systems in line with advances in device types and the
voltage and current capability of our semiconductors.
We offer an extensive range of air and liquid cooled assemblies covering the full range of circuit designs in general use today. The
Assembly group continues to offer high quality engineering support dedicated to designing new units to satisfy the growing needs of
our customers.
Using the up to date CAD methods our team of design and applications engineers aim to provide the Power Assembly Complete
solution (PACs).
HEATSINKS
Power Assembly has it’s own proprietary range of extruded aluminium heatsinks. They have been designed to optimise the
performance or our semiconductors. Data with respect to air natural, forced air and liquid cooling (with flow rates) is available on
request.
For further information on device clamps, heatsinks and assemblies, please contact your nearest Sales Representative or the
factory.
