IGBT-Driver - Power Electronics: SCALE-2

With the SCALE-2 chipset, CONCEPT introduces its next-generation technology platform for scalable IGBT and power MOSFET gate drivers introducing major advances in dynamic performance, accuracy, functionality, flexibility and time-to-market.

The design fully employs the methodology of the CONCEPT SCALE drivers that are used in large item numbers and have been tried and tested within a great diversity of applications.

The embedded paralleling capability allows easy inverter design covering higher power ratings.

The combination of state-of-the-art analog capabilities with moderate digital feature size yields an optimum cost-performance ratio.

SCALE-2 Plug-and-Play drivers

Thanks to SCALE-2 technology, the new plug-and-play series comprises complete, reliable and extremely compact IGBT drivers equipped with DC/DC converters, short-circuit protection, advanced active clamping and other outstanding features. Users need only mount them onto the corresponding IGBT module. The system can then be put into immediate operation with no further development or matching effort.

SCALE-2 driver cores

SCALE-2 driver cores are modules equipped with all the basic functions of a driver such as electrical separation, protective functions, DC/DC converters etc. They are mounted on a circuit board containing all the additional components required to match the driver to specific IGBTs or applications, such as an input interface, gate resistors, active clamping etc. Driver cores for IGBTs are available with reverse voltages from 600V to 1700V. They are also suited for driving power MOSFETs.
