FP50R12N2T7BPSA2

Overview

The FP50R12N2T7BPSA2 is an EconoPIM™2 power module integrating TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT7 and Emitter Controlled 7 diodes. It features a 1200 V collector-emitter voltage (VCES) and a nominal continuous DC collector current (ICDC) of 50 A at TC = 100 °C. The inverter IGBT exhibits a typical saturation voltage (VCEsat) of 1.50 V at 25 °C, while the inverter diode shows a forward voltage (VF) of 1.72 V. The module includes an integrated NTC thermistor with a rated resistance of 5 kΩ at 25 °C. It supports operation up to a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C and utilizes a copper base plate with an Al2O3 substrate.

• Motor drives
• Servo drives

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix BPSA2 against official Infineon documentation to confirm exact packaging and reel specifications. Ensure that the component meets the required industrial qualification standards defined in IEC 60747, 60749, and 60068 before integration into final designs.

Selection Notes

Select this module for applications requiring moderate switching frequencies and high overload capacity. The positive temperature coefficient of the IGBT7 facilitates parallel operation without active current balancing. Verify that the gate driver provides sufficient output current to handle the module's input capacitance effectively.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Infineon EconoPIM™2 family, designed for three-phase inverter configurations. It combines rectifier, inverter, and chopper stages within a single compact package. The T7 designation indicates the use of the latest trench-stop generation silicon technology for improved efficiency.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the EconoPIM™2 footprint and pinout. Consider modules like FP50R12W2T7 for EasyPIM™2 form factors if mechanical constraints differ, though electrical characteristics and mounting requirements must be re-evaluated.

FAQ

What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for overload operation?

The module supports a maximum junction temperature (Tvj op) of 175 °C. Operation above 150 °C is permitted specifically for overload conditions as detailed in application note AN 2018-14.

How does the internal gate resistor affect switching behavior?

The datasheet specifies an internal gate resistor (RGint) of 0 Ω at 25 °C. External gate resistors are required to control switching speeds and dampen oscillations during turn-on and turn-off transitions.

Is this component qualified for automotive applications?

No. The product is explicitly stated to not be qualified according to AEC Q100 or AEC Q101 documents of the Automotive Electronics Council.
