Munich, Germany – 5 March 2021 – Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) has launched the 650 V CoolSiC™ Hybrid Discrete for Automotive. The device contains a 50 A TRENCHSTOP™ 5 fast-switching IGBT and a CoolSiC Schottky diode to enable a cost-efficient performance boost as well as high reliability. This combination builds a perfect cost-performance trade-off for hard-switching topologies and supports high system integrity in addition to bi-directional charging. This makes the device ideal for fast switching automotive applications such as On-Board Chargers (OBC), Power Factor Correction (PFC), DC-DC and DC-AC converters.
