FAQ

What is the maximum operating junction temperature for this module?

The module supports an operating junction temperature range from -40 °C to 175 °C. Operation above 150 °C is permitted only under overload conditions as specified in application note AN 2018-14.

How is the internal isolation achieved in the EconoDUAL™3 package?

Internal isolation is provided by an Al2O3 substrate, classified as basic insulation according to IEC 61140. The module baseplate is made of copper, and the creepage distance between terminals and the baseplate is nominally greater than 15 mm.

What is the function of the integrated NTC thermistor?

The integrated NTC thermistor allows for real-time monitoring of the module's temperature. It has a rated resistance of 5 kΩ at 25 °C and a B-value of 3375 K (B25/50), enabling accurate thermal management and protection against overheating.
