Semikron - IGBT Driver Boards
Drivers form the vital interface between power transistors and controller. It cannot be emphasized enough that it is the choice and design of the electronic drive circuit that will ultimately determine the performance of an IGBT. For this reason, the performance of the driver is closely linked with the degree of reliability of a converter solution.
Inadequate driver power or the wrong choice of or poorly designed drive circuits can cause both modules and the driver - and ultimately an entire system - to malfunction.

The new SKYPER 42 R is a highly robust driver for control of 400 – 2000 Ampere IGBT modules. Boasting a mean time between failures of more than two million hours, the service life of this driver is triple that of standard IGBT drivers. The optimised layout featuring unique electromagnetic shielding and integrated short-pulse suppression guarantees protection from external interference. The SKYPER 42 driver charges up to 50µC, making it suitable for use in inverter systems up to 1.5MW.
