2SC0650P2Ax-17 Preliminary Data Sheet
Dual-Channel High-Power High-Frequency SCALE-2 Driver Core
Short Description
The SCALE-2 dual driver core 2SC0650P2Ax-17 combines highest power density with broad applicability. The
driver is designed for both high-power and high-frequency applications requiring maximum reliability. It is
suitable for IGBTs with reverse voltages up to 1700V and also features a dedicated MOSFET mode. The
embedded paralleling capability allows easy inverter design covering higher power ratings. Multi-level
topologies are also supported.
CONCEPT’s patented planar-transformer technology assures efficient and high-voltage isolation with long-term
reliability and sets new milestones in compactness, interference immunity and performance. Its outstanding
EMC with a dv/dt strength of more than 100V/ns allows safe and reliable operation in even the toughest
industrial applications.
Thanks to its ultra-flat design with an insertion height of max. 6.5mm and a footprint of 61.7mm x 57.2, the
2SC0650P2Ax-17 can efficiently utilize even the most constrained insertion spaces. Compared with
conventional drivers, the highly integrated SCALE-2 chipset allows about 85% of components to be dispensed
with. This advantage is impressively reflected in increased reliability at simultaneously minimized cost.
Equipped with the latest SCALE-2 technology, the driver core opens up the possibility of working with clock
frequencies of up to 150kHz – at best-in-class efficiency. The 2SC0650P2Ax-17 combines a complete two-
channel driver core with all components required for driving, such as an isolated DC/DC converter, short-circuit
protection, advanced active clamping as well as supply voltage monitoring. Each of the two output channels is
electrically isolated from the primary side and the other secondary channel.
