GP1600FSS18
Single Switch IGBT Module
Replaces January 2000 version, DS5136-3.0 DS5176-4.2 January 2001
FEATURES
■ Non Punch Through Silicon
■ Isolated Copper Baseplate
■ Low Inductance Internal Construction
■ 1600A Per Module
APPLICATIONS
■ High Power Inverters
■ Motor Controllers
■ Induction Heating
■ Resonant Converters
The powerline range of high power modules includes dual
and single switch configurations covering voltages from 600V to
3300V and currents up to 4800A.
The GP1600FSS18 is a single switch 1800V, 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.

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.
