Driving efficiency in drives

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

Based on the latest micro-patter trenches technology, the 1200 V TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 and EC7 diode offer strongly reduced losses and high levels of controllability. This device is optimized for industrial drive applications. Therefore, it enables lower static losses, higher power density, and softer switching.

EconoDUAL™ 3 (half-bridge for medium power)

EconoDUAL™ 3 modules are now available with the latest TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 generation, extending the 1200 V portfolio up to 900 A. The 900 A 1200 V EconoDUAL™ features an improved housing for handling higher currents, and temperatures within the same footprint. In combination with the TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 technology, it shows a significant reduction of losses, a high level of controllability and switching softness, as well as high short-circuit capability. Together with the maximum operation temperature of 175°C at overload, high efficiency and power density are achieved, enabling system simplification, and cost reduction.

CoolSiC™ 1200 V SiC Trench MOSFET in TO-263-7 package

The CoolSiC™ 1200 V, 30 mΩ SiC MOSFET in a D2PAK-7L (TO-263-7) package build on a state-of-the-art trench semiconductor process optimized to combine performance with reliability in operation. The low power losses of CoolSiC technology, combined with .XT interconnection technology in a new 1200 V optimized SMD package, enables top efficiency and passive cooling potential in applications such as drives, chargers and industrial powers supplies.

EiceDRIVER™ X3 Compact and Enhanced family

The EiceDRIVER™ X3 Compact isolated gate driver family now includes the X3 Compact 1ED31xx family, with a Miller clamp or separate output function. The active Miller clamp function is highly recommended for SiC MOSFET 0 V turn off. Up to 14 A output current, 200 kV/µs CMTI, 7 ns Max. propagation delay matching, 40 V max output supply voltage. Integrated filters reduce the need for external filters.

The EiceDRIVER™ X3 Enhanced isolated gate driver portfolio now includes X3 Analog 1ED34xx family and X3 Digital 1ED38xx family with DESAT, Miller clamp, Soft-off, and I2C configurability. This highly-flexible gate driver family offers a wide range of configurable features and monitoring options. This enables innovative use cases, such as predictive maintenance.

32-bit XMC™ Industrial Microcontroller based on Arm® Cortex®-M

XMC1000 microcontrollers bring together the Arm® Cortex®-M0 core and market proven and differentiating peripherals in a leading-edge 65nm manufacturing process. XMC1000 is the number one choice to bring traditional 8-bit designs to the next level. All XMC4000 devices are powered by Arm® Cortex®-M4 with a built-in DSP instruction set. The Single Precision Floating Point Unit, Direct Memory Access (DMA) feature and Memory Protection Unit (MPU) are state-of-the-art for all devices – even the smallest XMC4000 runs with up to 80MHz in core and peripherals. It comes with comprehensive set of common, fast and precise analog/mixed signal, Timer/PWM and communication peripherals.

NOR Flash

NOR Flash is the ideal memory for code storage in embedded systems due to its fast random read performance. This performance also supports XIP (eXecute In Place) functionality which allows host controllers to execute code directly from the NOR Flash Memory without needing to first copy the code to a RAM. Higher levels of Serial NOR Memory performance have enabled XIP to be used on a wide variety of designs in many applications.

Motor Drives Inverter Board with CoolSiC™ MOSFET

EVAL-M5-IMZ120R-SIC and EVAL-M5-E1B1245N-SIC are 3-phase inverter board for motor drive applications implemented with our CoolSiC™ MOSFETs. A control board equipped with the M5 32-pin interface connector, such as the XMC DriveCard 4400, can be used for operating. Jointly they feature and demonstrate usage of Silicon Carbide MOSFETs in this application. EVAL-M5-IMZ120R-SIC, the inverter uses TO247 packages, and the EVAL-M5-E1B1245N-SIC uses an Easy1B package.

Furthermore, the EVAL-M1-IM818-A is MADK evaluation board ready to use power stage with 1200 V IM818-MCC CIPOS™ Maxi IPM to drive 380 V 3-phase motor.
