Cissoid IGBT Power Module 1200V / 300A

The CMT-PLA1BK12300MA (and variant CMT-PLA1BK12300M) is a high-performance half-bridge IGBT power module from Cissoid, engineered for demanding power conversion applications. Rated for 1200 V collector-to-emitter voltage and 300 A continuous current, the module utilises advanced Trench Gate Field-Stop (TG-FS) IGBT technology to deliver low saturation voltage and efficient switching performance. Housed in a robust 62 mm package with a copper baseplate, the module is optimised for thermal management and system integration. Its half-bridge configuration simplifies inverter design, while its rugged construction supports high reliability in industrial, traction, renewable energy and power supply applications.

Key advantages of the CMT-PLA1BK12300MA module include high efficiency from reduced conduction and switching losses, high power density for compact system layouts, and strong tolerance to harsh operating environments. The module is suitable for elevated junction temperatures and rigorous operational demands. Designed with system-level robustness in mind, the module incorporates features such as high dv/dt immunity, enhanced thermal cycling endurance, and low VCE(sat) to support high-current and high-frequency switching environments.
