MG400J2YS61A

Overview

The Powerex MG400J2YS61A is a Dual IGBTMOD Compact IGBT Series module rated for 600V collector-emitter voltage and 400A continuous collector current. It integrates two N-channel IGBT transistors in a half-bridge configuration, each paired with a reverse-connected super-fast recovery free-wheel diode. The device features an isolated baseplate for simplified thermal management and includes integrated over-current and over-temperature protection circuits. Key electrical parameters include a maximum junction temperature of 150°C, an isolation voltage of 2500V AC, and a typical collector-emitter saturation voltage of 1.9V at 400A.
