3400 V phase-leg rectifier module

28 October 2009 Power Electronics / Power Management

Ixys has announced the extension of its diode rectifier module range to 3400 V repetitive reverse voltage. The MDD175-34N1 dual rectifier diode module features two diodes in an industry standard module. Each diode is rated at 175 A average current at a case temperature of 100°C and rated to 3400 V operation up to 125°C.

The MDD175-34N1 benefits from Ixys’ direct copper bond (DCB) isolated substrates which have been extended to offer a 3600 V terminal-to-base isolation rating. The high-voltage rectifier family is a new generation that covers the global trend for many applications to increase the supply voltage and is typically utilised in any front-end rectification stage in applications such as motor drives, wind power conversion systems and DC power supplies.
