PP100B060

Overview

The Powerex PP100B060 is a POW-R-PAK IGBT-based H-Bridge power assembly rated for 100A continuous collector current and 600V blocking voltage. It integrates F-series trench gate IGBTs with low conduction and switching losses, mounted on a forced air-cooled heatsink. The unit includes a low inductance laminated bus structure, isolated gate drive interfaces, isolated gate drive power supplies, and an 18000 µF DC-link capacitor bank. The control board provides user interface functions and built-in protection features including overvoltage, undervoltage lockout, overcurrent, overtemperature, and short circuit detection.

Feature Summary

• High performance IGBT inverter bridge utilizing state-of-the-art F-series trench gate technology
• Integrated gate drive system with fault monitoring, protection, and status LEDs
• Low inductance laminated bus structure for efficient power conversion
• Built-in output current measurement and feedback capabilities

Applications

• Motor control systems
• Power supply units
• Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)
• General power conversion applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and manufacturing date code upon procurement. Confirm that the required mating connectors match the recommended 3M specifications for the 26-pin header. Ensure the cooling infrastructure supports the specified 1500 LFM airflow to maintain thermal resistance limits. Validate input power supply ranges against the integrated gate drive requirements before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this assembly for applications requiring a configurable H-bridge topology with integrated drive and protection. Consider the 400VDC maximum operating bus voltage and 100A continuous current rating against load requirements. Evaluate the need for forced air cooling at 1500 LFM for thermal management. Verify compatibility with the analog feedback signals for current, temperature, and DC link voltage monitoring.
