Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Introduces New 650V H2-series IGBTs Improved for High-Speed Switching Applications
November 09 2016 - 2:09PM
Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited (AOS) (Nasdaq:AOSL), a
designer, developer and global supplier of a broad range of power
semiconductors and power ICs, today announced the release of
AOK40B65H2AL, the introductory device in the new 650V H2-series
IGBT family. The AOK40B65H2AL has been optimized to deliver
high-speed switching performance by improving fast turn-off
switching in applications such as welding machines, power factor
correction and high switching converters.

AOK40B65H2AL has been designed with the latest patent pending
AlphaIGBT™ technology platform and features industry-leading fast
turn-off and offers low VCE(SAT) at 2.05V, which reduces power loss
incurred during conduction and switching. The 650V minimum BVCES
rating and solid BV performance allow for a larger safety margin to
prevent sudden damage from voltage transients. Furthermore, low
turn-on di/dt and high turn-on dv/dt switching performance enable
lower EMI design effectively.
“IGBT-driven fast switching converters have been widely used in
welding machines, power factor correction, renewable energy
applications and so on. Due to higher efficiency, system cost
reduction and power quality regulation requirements, the proper
selection of the IGBT is crucial to achieving the overall system
efficiency robustness, EMI management and long-term reliability,”
said Dr. Brian Suh, Vice President of IGBT product line at AOS. The
650V H2-series offers designers the ideal combination for higher
efficiency, high ruggedness and EMI performance.
