N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 Introduction The operation of high power modules results in power losses, which have to be dissipated via a heat sink so that the maximum permissible temperature specified in the data sheet will not be exceeded.

N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 Mounting a Driver Board onto the Module The driver board could be mounted in two ways: through connectors (strongly recommended) or alternative directly soldering on the top of the module. When a driver board or module adapter board (PCB) is soldered directly on top of the module, the contact joints (=solder connections) between PCB and module auxiliary contacts should be mechanically relieved as much as possible.

The picture above shows the dimension and the structure of the auxiliary terminals. Due to the specific requirements of the JST connector the auxiliary terminals have the following properties: •...
N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 Application of the Liquid Cooling System The power loss occurring in the module has to be dissipated in order not to exceed the maximum permissible temperature specified in the datasheet during switching (T = 150 vj_op °C) in operation.

N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 PLEASE NOTE. The heat sink design should be done in such manner in which the cooling fluid has reduced bypass possibility. The figure below presents the cross section view of HybridPACK 2 module and the heat sink.
N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 Mounting the Module to the Heat Sink The clamping force of the module resulting from the assembly process to the heat sink depends on the torque applied and the condition of the heat sink material. The following torque values specified in the datasheet result from steel screws in aluminium heat sinks with a dry M6 thread and their typical friction factors of µ...
N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 Connecting the Bus Bars to the Power Terminals The DC power side should be connected with a laminated DC bus bar in order to keep the switching overvoltage as low as possible by minimising the stray inductance. Adherence to the maximum permissible voltage at the power terminals and at the IGBT chip is to be assured according to the RBSOA data in the datasheet.
N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 Connecting the Power Terminals with Ideal Strain Relief To connect the power terminals with the best possible strain relief, a recommended assembly schematic is shown in Figure 11, in which a bus bar is connected to the power terminals in such a way that only a low force is applied to them, even during shock or vibration conditions.
N 2010-03 Application Note AN 2010-08 r 2009 V2.0, August 2010 Storage and Transport Storage of the module at the temperature limitations specified in the datasheet is possible but not recommended. The recommended storage conditions according to IEC60721-3-1, class 1K2 should be assured for the recommended storage time of max.
2009 V2.0, August 2010 Data Matrix (DMX) Part Marking Infineon Technologies as a part of the electronic industry is making gains by using Data Matrix part marking to transform the way of tracing HybridPACK products, both through the manufacturing process, and throughout the entire life of that product or component. Total traceability means dramatic improvements to process and quality control.
