MIPAQ™ Family
Applications
The MIPAQ™ modules
enable highly efficient
power inver ter designs to
be used in
■ Industrial drives, such
as compressors, pumps
and fans
■ Power Supplies
■ Air conditioning systems
■ Solar inverters
The modules are
characterized by enhanced
testing and are delivered
as known-good systems.
MIPAQ™ is a functional product family that is dedicated to useful integration of
electronics into power modules.
The MIPAQ™ family was developed in order to offer Modules Integrating Power,
Application and Quality. It is a functional product family within Infineon‘s IGBT modules
portfolio. The combination of an IGBT module and integrated sensing and driving
electronics leads to an optimized solution in mastering the challenge of designing
powerful and compact inver ters for low and medium power. It eases the cost situation
on the one hand and contributes to energ y saving on the other hand. Thus, it improves
the profitability and protects our environment at the same time.
The MIPAQ™ family includes three products that offer significant board space savings
along with reduced development times and costs:
■ MIPAQ™ base
■ MIPAQ™ sense
■ MIPAQ™ serve
The MIPAQ™ base module features integrated shunts, while the MIPAQ™ sense module
offers fully digital current measurements with galvanically isolated output signals. The
MIPAQ™ serve module includes driver electronics and a digital temperature measure-
ment, both with galvanic isolation.

Chip technology
The MIPAQ™ family is based on an innovative packaging concept and utilizes the
advantages of the Infineon IGBT4 chip technology. This technology makes it possible to
increase the power density of IGBT modules. IGBT4 does not only provide approximately
20 % lower switching losses than IGBT3 but also significantly higher power cycling
capability. The operation junction temperature of IGBT4 is 150 °C offering even more
output power and higher reliability for a variety of applications.
Solder and PressFIT Mounting Technology
The MIPAQ™ base is available with the well known solder terminals while the MIPAQ™
sense features PressFIT connections as state-of-the-art. The advantage of the PressFIT
process is the fact that it can be separated from the soldering process and allows
module mounting on soldering and component side of the PCB. This increases the
design flexibility. The high reliability of PressFIT contacts in general increases the
system reliability. This is especially of interest, if modules are operating in harsh
environments.
