Mitsubishi Electric and Semikron Danfoss have jointly developed a new standard power module package built for 3-level circuits, targeting industrial drives and renewable energy systems. This isn’t just another component launch, it’s a practical move toward making inverter designs more consistent and efficient across the industry.
The power module package integrates Mitsubishi Electric’s LV100-type architecture for high-power applications with Semikron Danfoss’s SEMITRANS20 foundation.
What makes it work is the careful optimization of terminal layout and functions for 3-level circuits, while maintaining compatibility between both companies’ product lines. For customers, this means standardizing inverter designs becomes much easier.
As the push toward Green Transformation (GX) intensifies, the need for power semiconductors that convert electricity efficiently is climbing.
In industrial applications, 3-level circuits are gaining traction because they cut power consumption, deliver higher efficiency, and enable smaller peripheral components compared to traditional 2-level designs.
The new package incorporates a 3-level T-type circuit that drives better efficiency and enables more compact inverter designs.
The strategic placement of main electrode terminals and auxiliary control terminals, tailored specifically for 3-level T-type circuits, gives engineers more flexibility when designing inverters.
This is the kind of collaboration that moves the industry forward, practical, engineer-focused, and built for the decarbonization challenges ahead.
