International Rectifier Announces the SOT-227 - the Cost-Effective, Universal Solution to Power Applications
"This new Universal Power Package has everything a designer needs for a Power Conversion Application. In a single SOT-227,
he can choose our IGBT technology with the lowest switching and conduction losses or a HEXFET® power MOSFET with an
ultra low RDS(on)," says Haim Taraseiskey, strategic marketing manager at International Rectifier. "Low inductance design,
ultra high power density in a low profile isolated case, easy assembly and low cost make the SOT-227 the package of choice
for kW-range Power Conversion."
EL SEGUNDO, CA. August 1997 - International Rectifier (IR) is introducing a new Universal Power Package, the SOT-227. The selection includes
IGBTs with voltage ratings of 600 V and current ratings of 80 A and 100 A and a IGBT/FRED Co-Pack rated at 600 V and 75 A.
The 500 V HEXFET® power MOSFETs are rated at 38 A and 53 A followed by 100 V HEXFET power MOSFETs rated at 180 A. These
basic power switches are optimized for high efficiency performance in Power Conversion Applications - including switch mode power
supplies, uninterruptable power supplies, welding and induction heating. The Co-Pack IGBT/FRED can be easily configured into a
half-bridge, or paralleled for higher current handling capability.
The ceramic substrate ensures isolation at 2,500 Vrms, with very low thermal resistance. This allows the SOT-227 to operate
at a higher case temperature while maintaining the junction temperature within safe limits. Or, with lower operating temperatures,
designers can now achieve much higher system reliability. The electrically isolated baseplate is exposed, which allows direct mounting
to the heatsink, thus meeting the industry standards for safety.
