DESCRIPTION
Using the latest high voltage technology based on a
patented strip layout, STM icr oelectronics has designed an advanced family of IGBTs, the P ower-
™
MESH
IGBTs, with outstanding performances. T he
suffix “K” identifies a family optimized for hig h frequency applications (up to 50kHz ) and short circuit proof in
order to achieve very high switching performances (reduced tfall) mantaining a low voltage drop.
APPLICATIONS
■ HIGH FREQUENCY MOTOR CO NTROLS
■ SMPS
■ UPS
