STMicroelectronics provides a recommended PCB layout in their application note AN5046, which includes guidelines for thermal vias, copper pours, and component placement to minimize thermal resistance and ensure reliable operation.
The T1235H-600G requires a gate driver with a minimum output current of 2A and a voltage rating of at least 15V. STMicroelectronics recommends their L639x series of gate drivers, which are specifically designed for use with their IGBT modules.
The T1235H-600G can withstand short-circuit currents for up to 10μs without damage. However, prolonged overcurrent conditions can cause permanent damage to the module. It's essential to implement overcurrent protection in the system design to prevent damage.
Yes, the T1235H-600G can be used in a parallel configuration to increase current handling. However, it's crucial to ensure that the modules are matched in terms of characteristics, and the system design must account for the increased thermal and electrical stresses.
STMicroelectronics recommends using a heat sink with a thermal resistance of less than 0.5°C/W to ensure reliable operation. Forced air cooling or liquid cooling can also be used, depending on the system requirements and thermal design.
