IXSH40N60B

The IXSH40N60B is a highly reliable discret IGBT module. It is an important member of the IXYS IGBT family, which is a series of devices that use state-of-the-art technology and materials. The IXSH40N60B is contained in a molded plastic package and encapsulated with a soldered top metal lid to ensure that it is not affected by external influences. It is available in four different voltage classes and two different current ratings. It is designed for use in medium voltage and power supply applications.

The IXSH40N60B belongs to the single-trapped IGBT family and has an inherently low switching loss. It has an extended current range which makes it suitable for use in higher current applications and an increased power dissipation rating. It is also highly efficient and provides a low switching transition time.

The IXSH40N60B is ideal for use in medium voltage applications, such as industrial control, motor drive and AC/DC power conversion systems. It is also often used in high power applications such as power switches and motor control. The device is suitable for both AC and DC applications, and has an inherent current leakage protection feature.

The working principle of the IXSH40N60B relies on the same concept that applies to all IGBTs. It comes equipped with an input terminal and an output terminal, and the IGBT functions like a switch, controlling the flow of current from one terminal to another. When the input terminal is activated, the gate voltage is established, which causes electrons to flow between the gate and the substrate, creating a channel for current to flow. By applying the necessary voltage, the gate can be activated, allowing current to pass from the input terminal to the output terminal. When the gate voltage is removed, the channel is shut off and the current flow ceases.

The IXSH40N60B is subject to strict quality guidelines, to ensure maximum performance and reliability. It is also compliant with industry standard safety requirements. Its low switching losses, high efficiency and low switching transition time make it a great choice for many medium voltage applications. The IXSH40N60B is a robust and reliable device, which makes it an attractive choice for many industrial applications.
