Hi Terry , All
1. Attached in new info in my e-mail in box today from IR. NEW IGBT
replacement
for the venerable part.
http://www.irf.com/product-info/datasheets/data/irgp50b60pd.pdf
Spec sheet, note Figure 7 (80us pulse transconductance of 600A... :^D))) )
http://www.irf.com/whats-new/nr050118.html
Press release from IR.
370W, 600A pulse rated peak Warp II (150kHz) rated IGBT. Upgraded part to
IRG4PF50WD part (200W, 204A pulse). Cost $4.70 / 10K. Thermal
performance "significantly" improved over older part, 4 devices supposedly good
for up to 12kW in full bridge. NPT (PTC) allows paralleling. No stock
at Digikey (yet), should be releasing samples PDQ.
------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Does anyone have a good Pspice model of the TLP250 optocoupler (or can
point me to one on the web?) Toshiba does not have one, tried to simulate as
a current controlled voltage source (with diode in series with input)
driving a
NPN/PNP totem pole. Works but transition speeds were 10-20usecs versus
100ns observed in "juiced" mode.
Thanks
