T560N12TOFXPSA1

Overview

The T560N12TOFXPSA1 is a high-power Electrical Triggered Phase Control (EPTC) thyristor module manufactured by Infineon Technologies. It features a 1200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage and an average on-state current rating of 559 A at 180° electrical conduction. The device supports a surge current capacity of 6900 A for 10 ms and utilizes a disc package with a 48 mm diameter and 14 mm height. Key thermal parameters include a maximum junction temperature of 125°C and a thermal resistance from junction to case of 44 K/kW. The component employs a ceramic baseplate and requires a clamping force between 5 and 10 kN for secure installation.

Feature Summary

• Electrical triggering mechanism designed for phase control applications
• Robust mechanical construction utilizing a ceramic baseplate for insulation
• High surge current capability suitable for demanding industrial environments

Applications

• Industrial motor drives
• HVDC transmission systems
• Static VAR compensators

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix XPSA1 against official Infineon documentation to confirm pinout and mounting specifications, as suffixes can indicate variations in packaging or testing standards. Ensure compatibility with existing gate drive circuits designed for electrical triggered thyristors. Cross-reference the Mouser part number 641-t560n12tof if available to validate distributor listings against manufacturer data sheets.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1200 V rating is required for phase control thyristor applications. Compare the 559 A average current rating against system load requirements. Evaluate the 44 K/kW thermal resistance against the available heatsinking infrastructure. Confirm that the 5-10 kN clamping force requirement can be met by the mechanical assembly design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the T560N series of high-power thyristors from Infineon. It shares similar physical dimensions and current ratings with variants such as T560N14TOF and T560N16TOF, differing primarily in their voltage blocking capabilities. The TOF designation typically indicates a standard disc package configuration within this product family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include T560N14TOF or T560N16TOF if higher voltage ratings are acceptable. Verify that the gate trigger characteristics and thermal resistance values are compatible with the existing circuit design before substitution.
