Special Purpose

STC04IE170HP Description

The STC04IE170HP from STMicroelectronics is a high-performance Emitter Switched Bipolar Transistor (ESBT) designed for demanding power electronics applications. Rated for 1700V (1.7kV) and capable of handling 4A of continuous current, this through-hole-mounted device is engineered for robustness and efficiency in high-voltage circuits. Packaged in a TO247-4LHP format, it offers superior thermal management and mechanical stability. Although marked as Obsolete, its ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected status ensures compliance with environmental regulations. The Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 (Unlimited) rating further underscores its reliability in varied storage conditions.

STC04IE170HP Features

• High Voltage Rating: 1700V capability makes it suitable for industrial and renewable energy systems.
• Optimized Current Handling: 4A current rating ensures stable performance in gate driver and switching applications.
• Robust Packaging: TO247-4LHP package enhances heat dissipation and mechanical durability.
• Compliance: ROHS3 and REACH compliant, meeting stringent environmental standards.
• Low Sensitivity: MSL 1 rating allows for unlimited floor life, reducing handling constraints.

STC04IE170HP Applications

• Gate Driver Circuits: Ideal for driving IGBTs and MOSFETs in motor control and power supplies.
• Renewable Energy Systems: Suited for solar inverters and wind turbine converters due to its high-voltage tolerance.
• Industrial Power Modules: Used in welding equipment, UPS systems, and high-power SMPS designs.
• Automotive Electronics: Applicable in electric vehicle (EV) charging systems where high-voltage isolation is critical.
