1200V CIB Power Modules with High Level of Integration

January 16, 2017 by Jeff Shepard

Vincotech announced the launch of a new, deeply integrated Intelligent Power Module for 1200V applications. The flowIPM 1C CIB 1200V achieves the deepest level of integration of any power module available on the market today to drive down systems' cost and speed up assembly.

The flowIPM 1C based on a CIB topology (converter + inverter + brake) features three inverter gate drives, including a bootstrap circuit for high-side power supply. Each leg of the inverter provides current-limiting for circuit protection.

The current rating of this new intelligent power module housed in the new flow 1C housing is also impressive: 14A at 80 degrees C or 30A at 25 degrees C heat sink temperature.

The deeply integrated flowIPM 1C CIB 1200 V module enables manufacturers to slash their overall system's size, cost, and time to market. It also features a brake chopper with integrated gate drive as well as emitter shunts (30m‎Ω) for vastly improved motion control.
