Infineon IMBG65R022M1HXTMA1: A 650V, 22mΩ IGBT with High Performance and Reliability

In the realm of power electronics, the demand for efficient, robust, and reliable switching devices continues to grow, driven by applications ranging from industrial motor drives and renewable energy systems to electric vehicle charging and UPS solutions. Addressing these needs, Infineon Technologies introduces the IMBG65R022M1HXTMA1, a state-of-the-art 650V IGBT that sets a new benchmark for performance and durability in its class.

This IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) is engineered with a very low nominal on-state voltage drop, characterized by its ultra-low collector-emitter saturation voltage (VCE(sat)). With a typical dynamic resistance of just 22mΩ, the device significantly reduces conduction losses, leading to higher overall system efficiency. The low saturation voltage ensures that less energy is wasted as heat during operation, which is critical for improving the thermal management and energy consumption of power converters and inverters.

The IMBG65R022M1HXTMA1 is built using Infineon’s advanced trench gate field-stop IGBT technology. This design not only minimizes switching losses but also delivers enhanced switching behavior, making it suitable for high-frequency applications. The device offers excellent short-circuit robustness and a wide reverse bias safe operating area (RBSOA), which are essential for maintaining system reliability under fault conditions or during sudden load changes.

Another key advantage of this IGBT is its high temperature operation capability. It can perform reliably at junction temperatures up to 175°C, allowing designers to push the limits of power density without compromising longevity. The high operating temperature tolerance also reduces cooling requirements, which can lower system cost and size.

The module is offered in a robust and industry-standard package, ensuring mechanical durability and ease of mounting. Its low inductance design helps in reducing voltage overshoot during switching, further enhancing system reliability and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

In practical applications, the IMBG65R022M1HXTMA1 is ideal for use in high-power switching circuits such as three-phase motor drives, solar inverters, welding equipment, and industrial power supplies. Its combination of low loss, high switching speed, and strong ruggedness makes it a preferred choice for designers aiming to achieve higher efficiency and power density.
