Mitsubishi Electric to Launch Super-mini Full SiC DIPIPM
Optimal low power solution for high-grade energy-efficient air conditioners
TOKYO, August 17, 2016 – Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today the launchof a new transfer-mold power semiconductor model in its lineup of Super-mini Dual-In-line PackageIntelligent Power Modules (DIPIPMTM), embedded with Silicon Carbide Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor
Field-Effect Transistors (SiC-MOSFET). It will launch on August 17.

Super-mini Full SiC DIPIPM

Product Features1) Top class low power consumption in the home appliance market- SiC-MOSFET reduces power consumption by about 70 percent compared with Mitsubishi Electric’s
existing Super-mini DIPIPM, and contributes to an overall reduction in air conditioner power
consumption2) Simplified inverter system design- Footprint and pin configurations are compatible with Mitsubishi Electric’s existing Super mini
DIPIPM Ver.6, PSSxxS92x6series,etc.
- Designed with a high threshold voltage, SiC-MOSFET does not require a negative bias circuit,allowing simplification of the system design- Fewer external components due to use of embedded bootstrap diode with current-limiting resistor

In 1997, Mitsubishi Electric commercialized its first DIPIPM transfer-mold intelligent power semiconductor
module, contributing significantly to inverter system downsizing and energy savings. Reflecting growing
environmental awareness and increased demand for energy savings, especially in the Japanese market,consumers are increasingly choosing air conditioners that offer high power efficiency. In response,
Mitsubishi Electric is launching a new lineup of DIPIPM embedded with SiC-MOSFET, offering improved
power consumption for the air conditioner.
Environmental AwarenessThe product is compliant with the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical andElectronic Equipment (RoHS) directive 2011/65/EU.
Note: Development of this DIPIPM has been partially supported by Japan’s New Energy and Industrial TechnologyDevelopment Organization (NEDO).
