Description
This device is an IGBT developed using an
advanced proprietary trench gate field-stop
structure. The device is part of the S series of
1200 V IGBTs which is tailored to maximize
efficiency of low frequency industrial systems.
Furthermore, a positive V
CE(sat)
temperature
coefficient and tight parameter distribution result
in safer paralleling operation.
