The IH2 series extends the STPOWER IGBT family for induction heating applications in single switch quasi-resonant topology with the addition of the 1600 V voltage class to the existing 1350 V range. IH2 series IGBTs feature a higher breakdown voltage than the previous IH series and are combined with a copackaged low-drop diode.
The IH2 series is based on advanced trench gate field-stop (TGFS) technology with very high intrinsic breakdown voltage. The IH2 series helps maximize efficiency in single-switch quasi-resonant converters over a wide 16-60 kHz switching frequency range. Moreover, thanks to the low-drop diode and optimized turn-off energy, the IH2 series ensures very high efficiency in soft-switching conditions.
