Product Brief Thyristors & Diodes Bipolar power semiconductors from Infineon Technologies Bipolar are used in the most varied applications in a power range from a few kilowatts up to several gigawatts. Besides the standard phase-control thyristors and rectifier diodes, our product scope also includes diodes for fast-switching applications. For nearly all AC/DC power systems, we provide discs in ceramic housing as well as PowerBLOCK modules in various thyristor and diode configurations. Key benefits ››Outstanding power density ››Over 40 years in service without failure ››Deep knowledge of your systems and environment Light-triggered thyristors (LTT) are ceramic disc devices with the advantage of easy triggering using laser diodes and optic fibers. This ensures that there is no insulation problem between the load and trigger unit. Fewer electronic components with a high potential and internal protection functions – BoD, dv/dt and forward recovery protection (FRP) – ensure higher reliability. PowerBLOCK modules are offered in several configurations containing thyristor and diode switches in a voltage range from 1200 V to 4400 V and currents of 60 A up to 1100 A. The modules are designed and assembled in highly reliable pressure contact and also with solder bond technology. They are offered in several dual and single device topologies for almost all phase control applications. Presspack thyristors and diodes are offered in a voltage range of 200 V to 9500 V and a current range of 270 A to more than 8000 A. Besides diode disc types for rectifier applications, we also offer a range of discs as fast-switching diodes as well as soft and fast recovery freewheeling diodes for IGCT and press-pack IGBT switches. In addition, we offer a broad range of diodes and thyristors with stud and flat base housing as well as welding diodes Type Voltage VRRM Current ITAV Ceramic thyristor/diode discs 200 V up to 9500 V 100 A up to 8320 A PowerBLOCK modules 400 V up to 4400 V 60 A up to 1100 A www.infineon-bipolar.com | www.ifbip-shop.com ››Specific requirements and individual additional functions for your systems ››Fast and extensive technical support Applications ››Industrial AC and DC drives ››Soft starters ››Rectifiers and static by-passes in UPS ››Wind turbines ››Welding ››Electrolysis ››High voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems ››Flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) ››Freewheeling and clamping diodes for GTO, IGCT and presspack IGBT inverters Product Brief Thyristors & Diodes Overview PowerBLOCK modules 4400 4400 VPRM[V] 4000 4000 Pressure contact Solder contact 3800 3800 3400 3400 3000 3000 2800 2800 2600 2600 2400 2400 TT, DD, TD 61...104 A TT, DD, TD, ND 122...180 A TT, DD, TD, ND 150...380 A TZ, DZ 175...600 A TT, DD, TD 240...710 A TZ, DZ 530...1100 A 2200 2200 2000 DD only 2000 DD only 1800 1800 TT 1600 1400 1200 1600 TT TT, DD, TD 60...120 A TT, DD, TD 140...190 A TT, DD, TD 280...340 A 1400 TT TD 20 mm 34 mm 50 mm 50 mm Single module width 60 mm TD 1200 70 mm Single TD DT DT Available module configurations Infineon shortcut Description TT SCR/SCR type TD SCR/diode type Circuit TT TT TD TD Infineon shortcut Description DD diode/diode type DD DZ ND DD DT Circuit DD single TZdiode type T ND DZ D TZ T TZ single thyristor type TZ T DT DT DD DD ND DZ D ND DZ D Product Brief Thyristors & Diodes Overview phase-control thyristors in disc housings 9500 9500 LTTs 540 A 8000 8000 7000 1770 A ETTs 1200 A – 2250 A VRRM[V] 6500 2300 A 4000 A 7000 2100 A – 2620 A – 4340 A 4120 A 6500 3400 A 5200 5200 3200 3200 2800 2800 2200 2200 1800 1600 600 1800 1610 A – 3160 A 300 A – 690 A 360 A – 1080 A 280 A – 1490 A 540 A – 2510 A 1050 A – 3710 A 42 48 58 75 100 1600 111 case ø mm 120 150 172 202 600 Overview diodes in disc housings 9000 6800 9000 Rectifier diodes 6800 VRRM[V] 5000 3040 A – 4710 A 2240 A – 4830 A 5170 A – 6070 A 5000 2800 2800 2200 2200 2000 2000 1600 600 651 A – 970 A 818 A – 1234 A 565 A – 2450 A 1650 A – 5800 A* 1600 for all Tc = 100°C * Tc = 56°C 8320 A* 42 48 58 75 100 case ø mm 111 120 150 600 Product Brief Thyristors & Diodes Overview IGCT/IGBT freewheeling diodes and fast rectifier diodes in disc housings 6500 VDRM[V] 4500 Fast rectifier diodes 890 A* – 1120 A* IGCT / IGBT freewheeling diodes 1100 A* – 2250 A* 1100 A* – 1830 A* 1950 A* 6500 4500 700 A* 3200 3200 2600 2600 2000 2000 1600 443 A 650 A – 690 A 42 58 for all Tc = 100°C * Tc = 56°C 75 100 case ø mm Discs 111 120 150 1600 Modules and assemblies www.infineon-bipolar.com | www.ifbip-shop.com Published by Infineon Technologies Bipolar GmbH & Co.
