Using the latest high voltage technology based on
a patented strip layout, STMicroelectronics has
designed an advanced family of IGBTs, the PowerMESH
™
IGBTs, with outstanding performances.
The suffix “V” identifies a family optimized for high
frequency.

For a fast IGBT suitable for high frequency applications, the typical collector current vs. maximum
operating frequency curve is reported. That frequency is defined as follows:
f
= (PD - PC) / (EON + E
MAX

)
1) The maximum power dissipation is limited by
maximum junction to case thermal resistance:
P
= ∆T / R
D
THJ-C
considering ∆T = TJ - TC = 125 °C- 75 °C = 50°C
2) The conduction losses are:

= IC * V

3) Power dissipation during ON & OFF commutations is due to the switching frequency:
