Infineon has expanded its 7th generation TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 product family with the CIPOS Maxi Intelligent Power Module (IPM) series for low-power motor drives. The new IM12BxxxC1 series is based on the new TRENCHSTOP IGBT7 1200V and rapid diode EmCon 7 technology. Thanks to the latest micro-pattern trench design, it offers exceptional control and performance. This results in significant loss reduction, increased efficiency, and higher power density. The portfolio includes three new products in variants ranging from 10A to 20A for power ratings of up to 4.0kW.
The IM12BxxxC1 series is packaged in a DIP 36x23D housing. It integrates various power and control components to increase reliability, optimize PCB size, and reduce system costs. This makes it the smallest package for 1200V IPMs with the highest power density and best performance in its class. The IM12BxxxC1 series is particularly suitable for low-power drives in applications such as motors, pumps, fans, heat pumps, and outdoor fans for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning.
