FGH50N6S2D

Description

The FGH50N6S2D is a Low Gate Charge, Low Plateau Voltage SMPS II IGBT combining the fast switching speed of the SMPS IGBTs along with lower gate charge, plateau voltage and avalanche capability (UIS). These LGC devices shorten delay times, and reduce the power requirement of the gate drive. These devices are ideally suited for high voltage switched mode power supply applications where low conduction loss, fast switching times and UIS capability are essential. SMPS II LGC devices have been specially designed for:

• Power Factor Correction (PFC) Circuits

Product parametric performance is indicated in the Electrical Characteristics for the listed test conditions, unless otherwise noted. Product performance may not be indicated by the Electrical Characteristics if operated under different conditions.

2. Values for two Turn−On loss conditions are shown for the convenience of the circuit designer. EON1 is the turn−on loss

of the IGBT only. EON2 is the turn−on loss when a typical diode is used in the test circuit and the diode is at the same TJ as the IGBT. The diode type is specified in Figure 26.

3. Turn−Off Energy Loss (EOFF) is defined as the integral of the instantaneous power loss starting at the trailing edge of the input pulse and ending at the point where the collector current equals zero (ICE = 0A). All devices were tested per JEDEC Standard No. 24−1 Method for Measurement of Power Device Turn−Off Switching Loss. This test method produces the true total Turn−Off Energy Loss.

Handling Precautions for IGBTs

Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors are susceptible to gate−insulation damage by the electrostatic discharge of energy through the devices. When handling these devices, care should be exercised to assure that the static charge built in the handler’s body capacitance is not discharged through the device. With proper handling and application procedures, however, IGBTs are currently being extensively used in production by numerous equipment manufacturers in military, industrial and consumer applications, with virtually no damage problems due to electrostatic discharge.

IGBTs can be handled safely if the following basic precautions are taken:

1. Prior to assembly into a circuit, all leads should be kept shorted together either by the use of metal shorting springs or by the insertion into conductive material such as “ECCOSORBDt LD26” or equivalent.

2. When devices are removed by hand from their carriers, the hand being used should be grounded by any suitable means − for example, with a metallic wristband.

3. Tips of soldering irons should be grounded.

4. Devices should never be inserted into or removed from circuits with power on.

5. Gate Voltage Rating − Never exceed the gate−voltage rating of V

GEM

. Exceeding the rated V

GE

can result in permanent damage to the oxide layer in the gate region.

6. Gate Termination − The gates of these devices are essentially capacitors. Circuits that leave the gate open−circuited or floating should be avoided.

These conditions can result in turn−on of the device due to voltage buildup on the input capacitor due to leakage currents or pickup.

7. Gate Protection − These devices do not have an internal monolithic Zener diode from gate to emitter. If gate protection is required an external Zener is recommended.

Operating Frequency Information

Operating frequency information for a typical device (Figure 3) is presented as a guide for estimating device performance for a specific application. Other typical frequency vs collector current (I

CE

) plots are possible using the information shown for a typical unit in Figures 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 11. The operating frequency plot (Figure 3) of a typical device shows f

MAX1

or f

MAX2

; whichever is smaller at each point. The information is based on measurements of a typical device and is bounded by the maximum rated junction temperature.

f

is defined by f

NCx57085 is a high current single channel IGBT gate driver with 2.5 kVrms internal galvanic isolation designed for high system efficiency and reliability in high power

With a maximum offset voltage of 25 m V and input common mode voltage range that includes ground, the NCS21911 series is well−suited for applications where precision is required,

Since the LM2596 is a switch mode power supply regulator, its output voltage, if left unfiltered, will contain a sawtooth ripple voltage at the switching frequency.. The output

Figure 5 – Normally low voltage LED circuits are built with two or three LEDs in series driven with a linear (non- switching) current regulator.. These two lighting circuits show

When output voltage is loaded with very low current, primary controller goes into skip mode (primary controller stops switching for some time). While output capacitor C1 is

The power switch continues its normal switching operation and the power is supplied from the auxiliary transformer winding unless V CC goes below the stop voltage of 8 V..

Figure 28 portrays a typical scope shot of a SMPS entering deep standby (output un−loaded). Thus, care must be taken when calculating R limit 1) to not trigger the V CC over
