Diode module 5SHX1960L0006 3BHB016120R0002 3BHE019719R0101 GVC736BE101
Core electrical specifications:
Blocking voltage: VDRM = 4500 V
Average on-state current: ITAVM = 2645 A
Inrush current ITSM: 40 kA
Device type: Reverse-conducting IGCT (integrated freewheeling diode, no external anti-parallel diode required)
Package: Press-Pack disc package, double-sided water cooling
Junction temperature range: -40 ℃ ~ +125 ℃
Drive method: Fiber optic signal drive, strong electromagnetic interference resistance; hard-drive gate commutation technology
Switch-off characteristics: Fast turn-off, suitable for medium-voltage high-power converters
RC Key Advantages: Integrated freewheeling diode simplifies power unit topology and reduces cabinet size.
Working Principle (Brief)
The IGCT is based on an improved GTO thyristor and employs Gate Forced Commutation (GCT):
Turn-on: Fiber optic signal triggers gate conduction;

Turn-off: A large reverse current is drawn from the gate, forcing the anode current to quickly commutate to the gate, achieving reliable turn-off;
The RC version has a built-in reverse diode, capable of withstanding reverse current, suitable for voltage source inverter (VSI) topologies.
Key Features
✅ Integrated reverse conduction, eliminating the need for an external freewheeling diode and reducing stray inductance.
✅ Press-fit package, suitable for high-power water-cooled applications, easy for series and parallel expansion.
✅ Fiber optic drive, high and low voltage isolation, suitable for 6kV/10kV medium-voltage systems.
✅ Compared to IGBTs: stronger surge current resistance and lower conduction losses.
✅ Compared to ordinary GTOs: faster switching speed and no need for a large buffer circuit.
Installation and Fault Detection Points
Installation Requirements: Press-fit must use the specified pressure clamp; uneven pressure can easily cause localized overheating and damage to the chip. The cooling medium should be deionized pure water to prevent electrolytic corrosion.
Common Failure Modes
Overvoltage Breakdown: System buffer circuit failure, operational overvoltage
Thermal Fatigue Burnout: Insufficient water cooling flow, crimping force deviation, excessive junction temperature
Gate Damage: Driver board failure, abnormal fiber optic signal

Simple Static Judgment Method: Use a high-voltage megohmmeter in diode mode to measure: forward IGCT thyristor characteristics, reverse IGCT to show built-in diode conduction characteristics; if both forward and reverse are straight-through/completely open, the device is considered damaged.
