MIXA10W1200TMH

Introduction

The MIXA10W1200TMH is a 1200V 10A insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) module with a zero-voltage turn-on (ZVTO) feature. It uses TO-3PN package IGBT devices with anti-parallel diodes and fast clamping diodes. It is designed to reduce switching losses and power dissipation whereas diodes have a series resistance between their anode and cathode. The ZVTO feature helps provide a complete turn-off of the device, allowing the collector and emitter to be short circuited to ground voltage.

Application Field and Working Principle

Application Field of MIXA10W1200TMH

This module is suitable for automotive and industrial applications such as motor drives, uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), welding, and electrical power and traction systems. Some examples are inverters, flyback converters, and bridge rectifiers. It is suitable for the circuits of the traction inverter, the welding machine inverter, the spindle motor drive, and other general purpose switching circuits. The module has a high thermally conductive base plate and has a UL recognition.

Working Principle of MIXA10W1200TMH

The MIXA10W1200TMH is an IGBT module with zero-voltage turn-on (ZVTO) feature which helps provide a complete turn-off of the device, allowing the collector and emitter to be short circuited to ground voltage. It is built in a vertical configuration, which helps reduce switching losses and power dissipation compared to other IGBT modules. The module has anti-parallel protection diodes connected to each pair of IGBTs for added current carrying ability and fast clamping diodes for improved electrical stability that helps reduce voltage overshoot on turn-off. It is capable of switching at high frequency and requires a low gate drive voltage for complete turn-on and turn-off of the module.
