Dual IGBTMOD™
NF-Series Module
400 Amperes/600 Volts
Description:
Powerex IGBTMOD™ Modules
are designed for use in switching
applications. Each module consists
of two IGBT Transistors in a halfbridge conguration with each transistor having a reverse-connected
super-fast recovery free-wheel
diode. All components and interconnects are isolated from the heat
sinking baseplate, offering simplied system assembly and thermal
management.
Features:
£ Low Drive Power
£ Low V
CE(sat)
£ Discrete Super-Fast Recovery
Free-Wheel Diode
£ Isolated Baseplate for Easy
Heat Sinking
