IXGN100N170 is a third-generation field-stop insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) module that is widely used in various applications. This module supports a maximum collector current of 100A and a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 1700V. It is important to note that IGBTs are widely used in high-power motor drives due to their higher efficiency, fast switching capabilities, and superior power density, compared to other switching devices.

The working principle of IXGN100N170 is based on a combination of field-stop junction insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) technology and an integrated freewheeling diode. When a gate voltage is applied to the IGBT, it is turned on and conducts current from the collector to the emitter. During the on state, the base-emitter voltage of the embedded IGBT is usually small, which results in a low on-state gate current. When the gate voltage is removed, the IGBT will be turned off, and the embedded freewheeling diode conducts current from the collector to the emitter, making sure the current will flow uninterruptedly in the application.

The IXGN100N170 is mainly used for induction heating, contactors, UPS, and switching power supplies. Many automotive and industrial applications also use this module. For example, it is widely used as a power switch in various motors, including industrial fans, pumps, air conditioners, HVAC, and more. Due to its low on-state gate current, the IXGN100N170 is also suitable for applications with short commutation times and quick turn-off.

The IXGN100N170 is compatible with various control techniques, like the AC voltage control, DC voltage control, current control, and pulse width modulation (PWM). It can offer higher switching speeds and improved ruggedness, compared to previous IGBT designs. The module features an integrated avalanche clamp structure, which helps in suppressing avalanche failures caused by the high-dv/dt provided by the IGBT.

Thanks to its compact size and light weight, the IXGN100N170 also offers enhanced thermal protection, compared to its predecessors. It has an integrated temperature sensor, which helps in controlling the temperature of the transistor. The IXGN100N170 also features a soft-recovery freewheeling diode, which helps in reducing the switching losses of the IGBT.

To sum up, the IXGN100N170 is a very reliable and efficient IGBT module that is widely used in various applications, including industrial motors, UPS, contactors, and switching power supplies. It offers superior switching speed and low on-state gate current. It also features a built-in avalanche clamp structure and soft-recovery diode structure, which improves the reliability and switching performance of the IGBT.
