We could save up to 20% of energy or 17 million tons of CO2 if only half of all industrial drives had an electric speed control.

The 7th generation of TRENCHSTOP™ IGBTs is especial designed for variable speed drives. Based on the micro-pattern trench technology, which offer a high level of controllability. These features bring significant loss reduction in the application, especially for industrial drives, which usually operate at moderate switching frequency.

Every switch needs a driver and the right driver makes a difference. To make the most out of the design with TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7, we recommend using gate driver ICs that meet the IGBT7 as well as the industrial drives’ requirements.

IGBT7 in industrial drives requires high output current gate drivers that need to have reinforced isolation (VDE 0884-11 certified).  Infineon’s EiceDRIVER™ isolated gate drivers within the X3 Compact, 2L-SRC, and X3 Enhanced families meet these requirements while providing their differentiated characteristics.  The X3 Compact family provides an easy-to-design and cost-effective solution while the 2L-SRC family provides a high-performance option.  The X3 Enhanced family consists of an analog version providing best-in-class DESAT accuracy and a digital version that offers I2C configurability that enables predictive maintenance.

IGBT7 Modules

950 V/1200 V TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 - Higher power density and optimized switching

The 950 V/1200 V TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 and EC7 diode technology is based on latest micro-pattern trenches technology which provide strongly reduced losses and offer a high level of controllability.  This cell concept is characterized by implementing parallel trench cells separated by sub-micron mesas in contrast to the formerly used square trench cells. The chip is specially optimized for industrial drives applications and solar energy systems, which means much lower static losses, higher power density and softer switching. Additionally, by raising the allowed maximum operation temperature up to 175 °C at overload in the power module, a significant increase of power density can be obtained.

Our  IGBT7 modules will be adopted in Easy, Econo, EconoDUAL™ 3 and 62mm families.
