CONCEPT offers an unequalled selection of IGBT drivers for the most varied requirements. All concept products are distinguished by top technology, outstanding functionality, unrivalled quality and a first-class price/performance ratio.
CONCEPT SCALE IGBT drivers have defined the pioneering standards against which its competitors have to measure themselves. These SCALE drivers are based on the unique SCALE ASIC chipset (ASIC = Application-Specific Integrated Circuit).
SCALE Driver cores
SCALE Driver cores are PCB based electrical circuitry equipped with all the basic functions of a driver such as galvanic isolation,
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 3300V and driving power from 1W to 20W per channel. They are also suited for driving power MOSFETs
operating at switching frequencies up to 500 KHz
SCALE Plug-and-Play Drivers
SCALE Plug-and-play drivers are complete ready-to-use IGBT drivers that have been perfectly matched by CONCEPT to a large
selection of IGBTs. They are available for high-power and high-voltage IGBT modules with reverse voltages from 1200V to 6500V.
All plug-and-play drivers are complete solutions and are equipped with DC/DC converters (external for 4.5-6.5 kV), short-circuit
protection, active clamping, supply monitoring etc. 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.
DC/DC Converters (Power Supplies)
Most CONCEPT drivers are equipped with integrated DC/DC converters. As a complement to the drivers, which contain no electrically
isolated power supplies, CONCEPT offers a series of DC/DC converters developed specifically for supplying IGBT drivers.
