IXGP12N100AU1

Overview

The IXGP12N100AU1 is a single N-Channel Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) from the IXYS HiPerFAST series, housed in a TO-247AD-3 package. It features a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 1000V and a continuous collector current rating of 12A at 25°C. The device utilizes second-generation HDMOSTM process technology to achieve low saturation voltage for reduced conduction losses. Key electrical parameters include a maximum gate-emitter voltage of ±20V, a typical turn-on delay time of 12ns, and a fall time of 12ns. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C with a power dissipation capacity of 300W.

• DC servo and robot drives
• Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)
• Switch-mode and resonant-mode power supplies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix AU1 against official datasheets to confirm pinout and thermal characteristics, as variations exist within the IXGP family. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the manufacturer's latest documentation. Check for end-of-life or not-recommended-for-new-designations before finalizing procurement plans. Ensure sourcing channels provide authentic components with traceable manufacturing dates.

Selection Notes

Select this component for high-voltage applications requiring integrated freewheeling diode functionality without additional board space. Compare the 12A current rating and 1000V blocking capability against system requirements. Evaluate the TO-247AD-3 package suitability for through-hole mounting and heat sinking constraints. Consider the switching speed characteristics relative to the target operating frequency.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IXYS HiPerFAST IGBT lineup, designed for efficient power switching. The IXGP series specifically targets general-purpose industrial applications. The AU1 suffix typically denotes a specific variant within the standard TO-247AD-3 form factor, often including specific thermal or electrical tolerances defined by the manufacturer for robust industrial use cases.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 1000V 12A IGBTs with integrated FREDs in TO-247 packages. Verify pin compatibility and thermal resistance values when considering alternatives from other manufacturers. Cross-reference datasheets for matching VCE(sat) and switching times to ensure circuit performance parity.
