Infineon’s new TRENCHSTOP™5 IGBT technology redefines “Best-in-class” IGBT by providing unmatched performance in terms of efficiency for hard switching applications. The new family is a major breakthrough in IGBT innovation to match the market’s high efficiency demands of tomorrow.

Infineon's TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT technology leads to significant improvement of static as well as dynamic performance of the device, due to combination of trenchstop-cell and fieldstop concept. The combination of IGBT with soft recovery Emitter Controled Diode further minimizes the turn-on losses. The highest efficiency is reached due to the best compromise between switching and conduction losses.

Infineon’s high speed devices are used to reduce the size of the active components (25kHz --> 70kHz). Infineon’s HighSpeed 3 family provides the best compromise between switching and conduction losses. The key feature of this family is a MOSFET-like turn-off switching behavior, leading to low turn off losses.
