The 6th generation CSTBT modules reduce collector-emitter voltage saturation by approximately 15% compared to 5th generation MPD modules and gate capacitance by between 30% and 50%. In addition, the maximum junction temperature is raised to 175°C.
The new sixth generation of MPD IGBT modules is compatible with fifth-generation IGBT modules in terms of dimensions, shape, and pin configuration. The isolation voltage has now been increased to 4000V. The modules in the new series are available as CM900DUC-24S (1200V/900A), CM1400DUC-24S (1200V/1400A), and CM1000DUC-34SA (1700V/1000A).
The new IGBT series is fully RoHS compliant.
Power generation systems are increasingly displacing natural energy sources, such as wind and solar power, as part of efforts to limit carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions attributable to global warming. The sixth generation of the MPD series addresses the growing need for robust power conversion equipment in new, large-scale megawatt systems. The fifth-generation series has been successful since 2002.
