Application Fields

The CM1000HA-24H module is an ideal choice for high voltage, high power applications that require higher switching speeds. This module is commonly used in high power computer and telecom power supplies, motor drives, welding systems, UPS systems, other AC/DC converters, and other industrial, automotive and DC application fields.

Working Principle

The working principle of the CM1000HA-24H module is quite simple. This module is basically a voltage-controlled switch. When a voltage is applied to the gate of the module, the electrons in the transistor are forced to move, which in turn causes the drift of minority carriers. This current flow allows the module to control the flow of the larger current flowing in the load, thus allowing for power control.

When a current is applied to the gate, the CM1000HA-24H module begins to conduct and current begins to flow from the collector to the emitter. This increases the voltage present at the collector and reduces the voltage at the emitter. As the current continues to flow, the voltage between the collector and the emitter becomes higher and higher, which in turn allows for higher power handling capabilities.

The CM1000HA-24H module also features soft switching characteristics, which help to reduce the EMI noise caused by the switching operation. This helps to make it ideal for applications in which the reduction of EMI is important. Additionally, the CM1000HA-24H module provides superior reliability and performance in high current applications.

Conclusion

The CM1000HA-24H module is an excellent choice for high voltage, high power applications due to its high current and power handling of 1000A and 1410W. This module is also highly reliable in terms of its soft switching characteristics, which help to reduce the EMI noise created by the switching operation. Overall, it is an ideal choice for a variety of applications in industrial, automotive, and DC power control.
