The new 1200 V LoPak modules carry the same DNA for high reliability and robustness as the entire family of Hitachi Energy Power Grids’ high-power semiconductors.
Building on its experience of high-performance, high-reliability devices for voltages above 3.3 kV, Hitachi Energy Power Grids has expanded its product portfolio by introducing a family of 1200 V power modules to complement the existing 1700 V family, starting with a 1200 V, 900 A x 2 module using an upgraded LoPak module package.
New LoPak for 1200V Applications

- Benefits
For the active Front End, or machine-side converter, that connects the DC-link to the motor, Hitachi Energy Power Grids’ LoPak modules are a popular choice. Even at lower voltages, engineers not only want to create new inverter designs but would also like the ability to upgrade their existing designs to handle higher power using the same module package. This allows a faster time-to-market, less disruption of manufacturing lines, and potentially lower unit costs.
These new modules feature the next generation of ultra-low-loss, rugged Trench IGBT technology used to fabricate the silicon switch and optimized diodes.
- Applicatons
Typical applications include wind power converters, variable speed drives, power supplies, power quality, UPS and renewable energies.
- Features
Special treated Cu-baseplate, controlled bow and reduced airgap to heat sink.
Spacers for substrate solder, homogeneous solder thickness and less delamination.
Press-fit auxiliary connections, press-fit auxiliary pins allow a solder-free connection to the gate-driver PCB.
Copper wire bonds for high current terminal and substrate inter-connects.
Maximum junction temperature
of 175 °C.
