Update: 30 September, 2023
This application notes aims to outline the characteristics of a new power device that joins the peculiarities of an STMicroelectronics fast-switching PowerMESH™ IGBT with some novel protection features. A driver circuit is integrated in the power device to implement over-current protection and soft thermal shutdown. The current limitation also ensures a highly short-circuit rated device. Moreover the low threshold voltage and input current make it possible to drive the device directly from the output pin of a microprocessor. The static and dynamic behavior of the device will be illustrated and an application will be suggested.
