Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm package type and electrical characteristics. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal management designs given the 1150 W power dissipation rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by local regulations before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1200 V rating and 100 A continuous current are required in a PLUS247 form factor. Consider the 2.6 V saturation voltage for efficiency calculations in high-current applications. Verify that the driving circuit can handle the gate charge requirements associated with GenX3™ technology for optimal switching performance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IXYS IXYY series of XPT™ GenX3™ IGBTs. These devices combine thin-wafer technology with trench gate architecture to achieve low on-state voltage drops. The series is designed for medium-power applications requiring high reliability and efficient thermal handling in compact packages.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements may include other IXYS GenX3™ devices with matching voltage and current ratings, such as the IXYX100N120A4. Always verify saturation voltage and gate charge parameters to ensure equivalent thermal and drive performance.
