Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for specific ordering suffixes that may affect packaging or environmental attributes. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documentation matching the datasheet specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this module based on thermal management requirements, as the junction-to-case thermal resistance is 0.31 °C/W for the IGBT. Ensure the application operates within the specified -40°C to +150°C junction temperature range. Verify that the gate drive voltage aligns with the ±20 V maximum rating and the recommended 15 V operating level.

Part Context

This component belongs to the POWIR 34™ family of IGBT modules designed for industrial power electronics. Originally developed by International Rectifier, the product line was integrated into Infineon Technologies' portfolio following their acquisition. The module is optimized for medium-power applications requiring robust transient performance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the POWIR 34™ footprint and electrical ratings. Verify compatibility with existing heatsink mounting dimensions and screw torque specifications (M5 for power terminals, M6 for mounting screws). Check if alternative devices offer improved switching speeds while maintaining the required 600 V blocking capability.
