Application Areas

STW56NM60N IGBT is suitable for use in high power switching applications and power management systems such as HVAC, Motor Control, Solar Power Converters and lighting control. It is also used in renewable energy systems such as wind turbines, UPS, Inverters and Battery Chargers, and appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines and microwave ovens. It is also often used in UPS, Inverters and Battery Chargers.

Working Principle

STW56NM60N has two main parts, the IGBT itself and the NPT buffer layer. The IGBT is a three-terminal semiconductor device composed of two layers. The first layer is the NPT Buffer layer, which is a thin layer of silicon that serves as an insulation between the collector and the emitter. This layer blocks the flow of current between the two layers and therefore protects the device from the negative effects of collector to emitter short circuits. The second layer is the Gate of the IGBT, which is typically composed of metal and acts like a switch. This layer controls the flow of current by opening or closing the gate and therefore allowing or blocking the flow of electrons from the collector to the emitter.

When the gate is opened, the current passes through the IGBT freely and power is transferred from the collector to the emitter. This is controlled by applying the adequate gate voltage. When the gate is closed, the current is blocked and the power consumption is significantly reduced. This is done by controlling the gate voltage such that it is not enough to induce current flow.

Conclusion

STW56NM60N is an IGBT power module with its trademark NPT buffer layer. Its usage ranges from power conversion, inverter circuits, HVAC and Motor Control, to Solar Power and Lighting Control. It has a high current capacity, low ON-state resistance, and high switching frequency, making it ideal for a number of applications. Its working principle is based on the IGBT with a gate that manages the flow of electrons from the collector to the emitter. Therefore, STW56NM60N is a great option for power management systems and power switching applications.
