3 kW half bridge induction heating evaluation board with

650 V Reverse Conducting R6 IGBT

This induction heating, half-bridge evaluation board EVAL -

HW65R62EDS06J features the new 650 V reverse-

conducting R6 family of IGBTs, specifically designed for

induction heating and resonant switching applications up

to 100 kHz. The evaluation board demonstrates the func-

tionality and key features of the R6 IGBTs in combination

with the Infineon level-shift EiceDRIVERTM ICs based on the

Infineon SOI technology.
