Commonly used IGBT modules for uninterruptible power supply

What is IGBT used for?

Sep.1998 2.0 Main Applications for Power Modules Power modules are now commonly used in both converter and inverter circuits. As shown in the application chart in Figure 2.1, the main application of the IGBT is for use as a switching component in inverter circuits which are used in both power supply and motor drive applications.

What is a high voltage IGBT module?

Medium-Voltage IGBT Modules These modules operate in the range of 600V to 1700V, commonly used in industrial motor drives and renewable energy systems. High-Voltage IGBT Modules Operating at voltages above 1700V, these modules are used in heavy-duty applications like electric grids, railway systems, and high-power industrial equipment.

What are IGBT modules?

Unlock the potential of IGBT modules: Achieve the highest reliability and optimal electrical performance with unhindered design flexibility Insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) are the most used power electronic components in industrial applications, offering fast switching of electric currents to achieve low switching losses.

What protection mechanisms do IGBT modules have?

Many IGBT modules come with built-in protection mechanisms, such as overcurrent protection, short-circuit protection, and under-voltage lockout, which protect the transistors and other connected components from damage during abnormal conditions. 5. Electrical Isolation
