IXYS 1700V XPT™ High Voltage IGBTs

IXYS 1700V XPT™ (eXtreme-light Punch Through) IGBTs are designed for high-voltage, high-speed power conversion applications. Developed using thin-wafer XPT technology, these IXYS IGBTs provide reduced thermal resistance, low tail current, low-energy loss, and high-speed switching capabilities.

The devices' positive temperature coefficient of the on-state voltage enables designers to use the IGBTs in parallel. This capability allows a reduction in the associated gate drive circuitry, a simpler design, and an improvement in overall system reliability.

The co-packed fast recovery diodes offer low reverse recovery times. The fast recovery diodes are optimized for smooth switching waveforms and significantly lower electromagnetic interference (EMI).
