Hard-switching600 V, 10 A TRENCHSTOP™IGBT3 copacked with full-rated external free-wheeling diode in a TO220 Full-Pak package, leads to significant improvement of static as well as dynamic performance of the device, due to the combination of trench-cell and fieldstop concept. The combination of IGBT with soft recovery emitter controlled diode further minimizes the turn-on losses. The highest efficiency is reached due to the best compromise between switching and conduction losses.
