HVIC Evolution
International Rectifier has invested (and continues to invest) in a new IC process that will support the continued improvement of our HVICs and allow these improvements to be realized while keeping price under control. This new process is referred to as G5 HVIC.
The adoption of a new IC process as an existing IC process approaches its limits is part of the natural progression in IC evolution. The G5 HVIC process allows improvements in device capabilities, tighter specifications, temperature stability, functions/$, and the integration of previously unavailable features at an attractive price point.
Two categories of products have emerged from this new technology; G5 HVIC new products, and G5 HVIC replacement products (to replace existing HVIC products).
